Scott Brown (Turnberry) faced number two seed and Scotland internationalist James Byrne (Banchory) for a place in the quarter finals but was never ahead in his match as he exited the tournament with a 3 & 1 defeat.
Brown was two down at the turn against byrne but reduced the defecit to one hole with a birdie three at the 12th, only to see the defecit restored to two holes at the thirteenth courtesy of a birdie two from Byrne.
The players matched each other in par over the remaining holes until Brown could only manage a bogey five at the seventeenth hole to give byrne a 3 & 1 win.
