Paul Kytzia and Joe McSorley (Beith) are the 2025 Ayrshire Men's Fourball Champions after victory in the final on Sunday the 14th of September over Alan & Stuart Pole (Abbotsford) at Caprington GC.
With the Abbotsford pairing both playing off 11, the beith players were both getting shots in the final, with Paul receiving 1 and Joe getting 14.
Despite giving shots it was the Abbotsford team who took the early lead, winning the second an third with pars to take a two hole advantage.
A birdie three at the fifth and a par four at the sixth was enough for the beith players to take both holes to level the match and the teams remainined locked together until the ninth when a par four was good enough for the Abbotsford players to take a single hole lead as the players turned for home.
A par at the par three eleventh saw the beith duo square the match once again but it was the Abbotsford duo that again edged in front with a par five at the thirteenth after both their opponents found trouble.
In what had been a tight match throughout it was no surprise when the beith pair took the fifteenth hole with a par four to level the match, and a three at the short sixteenth hole put the beath team ahead in the match for the first time.
Despoite their best efforts the Abbotsford duo could only match theor opponents over the closing two holes, leaving Paul Kytzia and Joe McSorley as the winners of the match, taking the trophy back to Beith for the first time in the 43 year history of the competition.
At the conclusion of the final the match referee, Ayrshire Gofl Association Vice President Barry O'Rourke (Caprington) presented vouchers to all four finalists before handing over the trophy to the 2025 championship winners from Beith GC.
