DRUMMOND EDGED OUT BY MASON IN RYDER CUP WALES SENIORS OPEN
Prestwck Golfer Ross Drummond produced another fine performance at the weekend, in this his maiden year in Seniors competition, finishing joint runner up in Wales.
CARL MASON WINS RYDER CUP WALES SENIORS OPEN
By STEVEN FRANKLIN
Press Officer, European Seniors TourEngland’s
Carl Mason captured his 15th title in four years on the European Seniors Tour in front of huge galleries at the Ryder Cup Wales Seniors Open on Sunday.
Mason, four strokes behind after eight holes of his final round, produced four birdies down the testing back nine at Conwy (Caernarvonshire) Golf Club to win by two strokes from overnight leader Juan Quiros of Spain and Ross Drummond.
The Oxfordshire golfer’s closing round of four under par 68 gave him a winning 54 hole total of six under par 210 and a healthy winner’s cheque of £75,000 (€110,358).
“This is the second biggest event on the European Seniors Tour and I needed to win this week if I am to challenge for a third Order of Merit title,” said Mason, who moved up to second spot on the money list with this victory, his second in the Ryder Cup Wales Seniors Open.
Drummond was bitterly disappointed after missing out on his maiden Seniors title. The Scot’s challenge ended with a three-putt bogey at the 17th for a round of 69, which left him on four under par 212.
“I saw that Mason had birdied the 16th so I had to give my first putt from 25 feet a go. I ran it three and half feet past and missed the return. It was a hugely disappointing way to finish as I had played well,” he said.
Quiros, who had matched the course record with a brilliant 64 on Saturday, could not produce similar heroics and closed in 73.
Fourth place on three under par was shared by Italy’s Costantino Rocca (72) and Ireland’s Des Smyth, who stormed through the field with a best-of-the-day five under par 67.

SOUTH AYRSHIRE GOLF - Pre Handicap event and Tom Lehman trophies scheduled for early August
Monday 6th August 2007 will see the second staging of the South Ayrshire Junior Golf Pre-handicap Open.
This event is for all boys and girls aged between eight and eighteen years of age who have not yet achieved an official golf handicap. The aim is to introduce young golfers to ‘open’ competitions at an early stage, with the hope that those who play in 2007 will have obtained a handicap and will be able to play in the Troon Junior Open in 2008.
The competition will be played from specially installed forward junior tees on Troon Fullarton Golf Course with boys and girls playing from the same tees.
The emphasis of this competition is on participation, with a goody bag being given to each competitor rather than having a prize list that only rewards those who score well.
A trophy will be presented to the lowest score in each age category, which will be displayed on the draw sheet.
Do not miss out on the opportunity to play in this event - places are limited.
For further information and an entry form click onto
www.golfsouthayrshire.com/events2007/junioropen
In the same week the 2007 Troon Junior Golf Open for the Tom Lehman Trophies in association with Golf Holidays Ltd. will be held.
This year will mark the tenth anniversary of this hugely successful one-day junior golf tournament, which is reputedly the World’s largest event of its kind.
The two silver replica claret jugs are presented to the best boy’s and girl’s gross score.
The 2007 Troon Junior Golf Open will be held on Tuesday 7th August and will, as in previous years, consist of five separate handicap competitions, open to boys and girls from eight to eighteen years of age.
