Blairgowrie’s Bradley Neil, the new Scottish Boys champion and Ewan Scott from St Andrews, the reigning Scottish Youths champion, are just two of the young males who have progressed through the Scottish Golf Academy programme in recent years, as did Scott Borrowman from Dollar, the SGU Men’s Oder of Merit winner in 2012.
 

Scottish girls’ title holder Lauren Whtye, from the St Regulus Club in St Andrews, and Clara Young of North Berwick, a GB&I girls’ international, have also come through the Academy.
