BELLEISLE CUP 2008 ... SPONSORED BY SLATER HOGG + HOWIESON

The 2008 Belleisle Cup was won on Sunday 1 June by Paul Gault of the Westerwood Hotel Golf Club.

An (above) capacity field of 77 took part in great morning weather with Graeme Gimson of Prestwick St. Cuthbert leading after a 1 under par 70.

The afternoon rain didn`t affect the scoring and Darren Mallinson of Ravenspark fired a superb 67 to add to his morning 77 to set an early leading total of 144.

As Gimson faded to an afternoon 76, Michael Smyth of Royal Troon shot a second successive level par 71 to move into the lead on 142 but this was bettered by Paul Gault of Westerwood who added a fine 3 under par 68 to his morning 71 for 139 to take the trophy and the £250 1st prize.

Belleisle Golf Club would like to thank everyone who took part, Slater Hogg for their kind sponsorship and Kevin Johnstone and his greenkeeping staff for setting the course up in excellent condition.
