AYRSHIRE GOLF ASSOCIATION - Milligan ousts holder in Matchplay quarter finals

Ross Milligan (Troon Welbeck) defeated defending champion Tommy McInally (Loudoun) in the quarter finals of the 2007 Ayrshire Matchplay Championship at Irvine (Bogside) on Tuesday 8th May to set up a semi final meeting with former Ayrshirer Boys Champion Jamie Mackay in the penultimate round.

Milligan was on top form in defeating McInally by 3 & 2 in their match.

Both the other quarter final matches finished on the final green, Strokeplay Champion John Shanks (Irvine) defeating Champion Of Champions Trophy holder Brian Moore (Largs) by one hole and Stephen Murray (Troon Welbeck) beat Craig Hamilton (Ballochmyle) by the same margin.
