Jordan Fraser (Ayr Belleisle) won the 2015 Ayrshire Junior Champion Of Champions title on Sunday 20th September at Ballochmyle, fighting back from three down to take the title on the final green.


In the final, Fraser faced Graeme Greer (Prestwick St Nicholas).

After a half in pars at the opening hole, Fraser took the early lead with a par four at the second but a par three at the third was good enough for Greer to level the match.

Greer then raced to a three hole lead, taking three successive holes from the fourth with two birdies and a par.

Fraser stemmed the tide at the close of the outward half, taking the ninth with a  par to turn for home with a two hole deficit.

Greer restored his three hole lead with a birdie three at the tenth but again a par at the fourteenth was good enough for Fraser to reduce the lead to two holes once more.

A halved hole at the fifteenth left Fraser two behind with three to play but par figures at the sixteenth and seventeenth were good enough for Fraser to take both holes and level the match for the first time since the third hole and set up a grandstand finish at the par five finishing hole.

At the final hole, Fraser completed an outstanding comeback, holing out for a birdie four to take the hole and the 2015 Ayrshire Junior Champion Of Champions title.
