ON COURSE MARSHALLING AT SSGS EVENTS

Most of you will be aware that during the past few tournaments we have had a marshall [mainly Ian McKerron] on the course during play. The initiative for marshalling the course derived from some concerns among members about pace of play in one or two recent events.

The committee wants to make it clear to competitors that the role of the marshall is not to ‘spy’, single out or, indeed, sanction particular players that may have fallen behind the group in front, but primarily to monitor overall pace of play throughout the whole field in order to maintain flow.

So far, the mere presence of a marshall in a buggy has been sufficient to remind groups that have fallen behind to slightly quicken their pace without need for warnings or players being ‘put on the clock’.

We believe that the marshalling so far has delivered positive results and we are minded to continue with this initiative when resources and manpower allow (which will not always be the case).

These days, complaints about slow play are common in virtually all golfing environments and arenas. While it is sensible to try to address this problem wherever it might arise, there is a danger of becoming overly fixated on the issue when, in reality, around four hours for a three-ball in tournament conditions is not unreasonable.

To emphasise again, the course marshall is not there to threaten slow groups with sanctions. The marshall’s job is to merely make players aware that they may be losing too much ground to the group in front or are delaying groups coming behind them.

Of course, the presence of the marshall at any particular part of the course does not necessarily mean he is concerned about a group’s pace of play. He may just be admiring the golf before moving on!

We hope that members will support this move and trust they show the marshall due courtesy and respect for a job well worth doing.

Spring Meeting - Kilmarnock Barassie G C 20/21st April

JENKINS SWEEPS TO VICTORY AT BARASSIE AS FIRST ROUND LEADERS FLOUNDER IN THE WIND

An unmatched two-under par second round of 70 secured victory for Royal Troon’s Robert Jenkins at Kilmarnock Barassie in the opening 36-hole tournament of the year.

The Scottish internationalist improved his first round score by five shots to claim the Spring Meeting title by virtue only of a better second round score from Gullane’s Duncan Low who followed a one-under par 71 with 74.

In cool and breezy conditions, Jenkins shot an impressive three birdies and six pars on his second round outward nine to turn in 34. He bogeyed the par three 12th and the par four 15th, but a birdie at the closing hole brought him home in 36.

Low, meanwhile, turned in one-under with birdies at the second and par-5 seventh with his only blemish being a bogey at the par three 4th. Three putts at the 18th for an inward half of 38, three over par, cost him the title.

Joint first round leaders Scott Walker, Gullane, and local player Andrew Campbell couldn’t match their first rounds of 69, slipping to a disappointing 78 and 84 respectively.

Robert Smith, Nairn, finished third with two rounds of 73. His 146 total was also enough to finish runner-up in the nett medal, with John Wilkes, Haggs Castle, running out winner with rounds of 70 and 73

Wilson Bryson, Drumpellier, was third on countback from Ian Jeen, New Club St Andrews, with rounds of 72 and 74,

The Society would like to congratulate and thank all at Kilmarnock Barassie Golf Club for the excellent condition of the course and first class catering. Special thanks to Steven Kerr, Golf Operations, for his invaluable support and assistance.

John Fraser, Royal Burgess, who was lying second after a first round 70 carded a second round 75 to finish third in a field of 70 players.

East of Scotland Open - Leven G C - 18/19th May

HENDERSON COMPLETES THE ‘GRAND SLAM’ WITH FINAL GREEN BIRDIE PUTT AT LEVEN

Scottish internationalist Stewart Henderson became only the second player in SSGS history to complete the ‘grand slam’ of tournament triumphs with a sensational win in the East of Scotland Championship at Leven Links.

A single shot separated Henderson and Scotland team-mate Paul Moultrie to secure victory for the former and a place in the annals of senior amateur golf.

The only other player to win all nine of the tour’s principal tournaments is former Scotland team captain Ronnie Clark.

Henderson followed a one-under par 70 in the opening round at Leven with a two-under par 69 in the second, compared with Moultrie’s 71,69.

A long, raking birdie putt on the 18th green gave the Hamilton player victory by the narrowest of margins.

Both Henderson and Clark have won the Scottish Seniors Matchplay Championship, the Spring Meeting, the North of Scotland Championship, the President’s Cup, the East of Scotland Championship, the Central Scotland Championship, the West of Scotland Championship, the South of Scotland Championship and the Autumn Meeting.

Henderson has now won 14 SSGS tournaments overall compared with Clark’s 16.

Henderson was delighted to have finally won the East of Scotland crown.

He said: ‘It was the one tournament missing from the set so I am chuffed to have got this one over the line and to have a complete slam of SSGS events.’

Henderson’s second round was the model of consistency with nine straight pars on the outward half and three birdies and only one bogey on the inward.

Moultrie’s second round front nine mirrored Henderson’s back nine with three birdies and one bogey, while his inward half comprised nine straight pars.

Keith Watt, Turnhouse, finished third with two rounds of 70, despite a triple bogey 8 on the par five 12th on Day Two,

First round leader Alan Anderson, Aberdour, slipped to a disappointing 76 after his opening round of 69.

As a measure of the quality among the 132-strong field, the top 14 finishers were all plus handicap players bar two, who were scratch and 1 handicap.

The top four players - Henderson, Moultrie, Watt and Royal Dornoch ‘s Allan Cameron completed the 36 holes in under par with the fifth placed Ronnie Clark, finishing level - hugely creditable performances by all especially since they faced challenging wind and rain conditions on the second day.

Round of the tournament was achieved by Braehead’s Paul Brookes with an impressive and unrivalled four under par 67 in the second round, comprising four birdies and 14 pars.

Moultrie (+1.3) had the consolation of finishing top of the nett competition on 140. Drumpellier’s Graham Rankin (0.7) claimed the runner-up spot with the same 140 total but had one more shot than Moultrie in the second round. George Barrie (1.6) finished third on 141 ahead of Strathaven’s Robert Scott (2.8) by dint of a better second round score.

The Society would like to extend its warmest thanks to all at Leven Links and Leven Thistle Golf Club for their hospitality during two days of excellent service, including captain Gus Cargill and Chris Galloway and his assistant John Mudie.

Super Seniors Summer Meeting - Boat of Garten Golf Club - 1/2nd June

FRASER TAKES THE HONOURS AT BOAT OF GARTEN AFTER FIRST ROUND LEADER BARRIE FALTERS

Scottish internationalist John Fraser won the Super Seniors Summer Meeting at Boat of Garten with rounds of 68 and 73 for a one over par total of 141.

The Royal Burgess stalwart triumphed by virtue of a better second round than first round leader George Barrie, Glenbervie, who opened his account with a magnificent five-under par 65.

Barrie couldn’t replicate his first round performance on Day 2, slipping to 76, while Fraser did just enough to claim the Gold Medal.

Both Fraser and Barrie were among the early starters and had the advantage of favourable weather conditions, especially in the second round. Later starters had to battle heavy rain as well as some tricky pin positions.

Gordon Meikle, Ladybank, finished third with rounds of 71 and 74.

In the handicap section, Willie Skene (11), Winterfield, turned in two nett rounds of 67 to take the honours. Murray Ferguson (6), Royal Burgess, was runner-up three shots adrift on 137, although he had the best gross score of Day 2 with 71. George Barrie (1) was third, two shots further back.

The Society is grateful to club captain Caroline Bashford and all at Boat of Garten Golf Club for hosting the event, for helping with starting duties and for first-class catering.

Presidents Cup- Scotscraig Golf Club - 11/12th June SPONSORED BY THISTLE WINDOWS GROUP

NIAL NAILS IT AT WINDSWEPT SCOTSCRAIG TO WIN THE PRESIDENT’S CUP. RONNIE CLARK WINS VICE-PRESIDENTS CUP

Tantallon’s Nial Gemmell shot a remarkable second round of 67 to win the President’s Cup at a rainy and windswept Scotscraig.

His four under par score saw him clinch victory by virtue of a better second round than Steven Armstrong, Turnhouse, who finished with the same 140 total.

Gemmell had opened his account with a two-over par 73, but defied winds gusting to 40mph on Day 2, posting five birdies and only one bogey over the 36-hole tournament.

Meanwhile Armstrong matched his first round 70 on Day 2 to claim the runner-up spot.

Ronnie Clark, Erskine, the 2022 President’s Cup champion, finished third with rounds of 71 and 70 which meant he won the Vice-President’s Cup for competitors over the age of 65.

Overnight leaders Neville Johnstone, Powfoot, and Gordon Taylor, Glenearn, couldn’t match their opening 69s, slipping to 77 and 81 respectively.

Once again, the standard of performance across the 128-strong field was impressively high, with 19 of the top 20 competitors all plus handicap players.

In the handicap section, Stirling’s Mike Hall (5) triumphed with nett rounds of 69 and 68. Forrester Park’s Steve Jamieson finished on the same aggregate score but was three shots adrift of Hall in the second round.

The Society is grateful to everyone at Scotscraig Golf Club, including general manager Leanne Mirrey, head professional Cammy West and staff, the green staff and catering staff for helping to make it a very successful event.

Central Scotland Scotland Open - Renfrew Golf Club G C- 29/30th June

MOULTRIE EARNS HIS SECOND CENTRAL SCOTLAND CROWN WITH SIX BIRDIE BONANZA

Royal Troon’s Paul Moultrie shot a second round 68 to clinch victory at the Central Scotland Seniors Championship at Renfrew.

His three-under par score was enough to secure the gold medal ahead of local player Gordon Coster who finished on the same 142 total but lost out due to Moultrie’s better second round.

After an opening round of 74, Moultrie completed his second round outward half with five birdies and no dropped shots. A further birdie at the par five 15th helped soften the blow of bogeys at the 11th and 13th.

It was the Scottish internationalist’s second victory in the Central Scotland Championship. His previous win was in 2019 at Stirling where he jointly holds the course record of 63, shot during the 2022 Scottish Seniors Open Championship.

Coster had jointly led with West Lothian’s Michael Wilson, both of whom shot one-under par 70s in the opening round in which the 114-strong field faced strong crosswinds and some challenging pin positions.

Heavy bursts of rain punctuated the second round in which Coster was only one over the card. Wilson couldn’t emulate his first round performance and slipped to 79.

Three-times Scottish Matchplay champion John Mathers finished third with rounds of 73 and 70.

In the handicap section, Coster (3) won by six shots from Stephen Forbes (4), Haggs Castle, with Robbie Allan (1), Lanark, and John Laurie (scratch), Glasgow, in joint third place on 144.

The Society is grateful to all at Renfrew Golf Club for hosting the tournament and presenting the course in excellent condition. Particular thanks to club professional Andy McColl for his help and support.

Super Seniors Open - Sandy Pirie Trophy- Lochmaben G C - 9/10th July

FRASER KEEPS HIS COOL IN THE CAULDRON OF LOCHMABEN TO WIN THE SANDY PIRIE TROPHY

John Fraser battled through temperatures reaching 32 degrees Centigrade at sun-drenched Lochmaben to secure his second consecutive Super Seniors trophy of the season.

Rounds of 69 and 74 gave the Royal Burgess member a two-shot victory over local member David Dickson who followed a first round 73 with a 72 on the second day.

John was the only player in the 70-strong field to record a sub-par round during two days of intense heat at the Dumfries-shire course which was universally praised for its immaculate condition.

Former Lochmaben club champion Ian Brotherston was third with scores of 76 and 75.

Virtually every player found it difficult to cope with the heat, many of them wilting on the much tougher back nine.

But hats off to Kilmarnock Barrasie’s Bill Wardrope whose gross 71 was the lowest score recorded on Day 2, all the more remarkable by the fact that he did not wilt on the back nine, coming home in two-under par 35. The eight-handicapper was 13 shots better than his opening round and his aggregate was enough to secure the top handicap slot by four shots from David Dickson.

Alan Shearer, Forest Park Golf Club, was third in the handicap section on 142.

The Society would like to extend its heartiest gratitude to Lochmaben Golf Club for hosting the tournament. Special thanks to General Manager Donna Wilson, Head Greenkeeper Ducan Scobie and his staff for the excellent condition of the course, bar manager Rachel McCruddin and staff for keeping members fed and watered, Maitland Pollock for acting as starter and David Dickson for his assistance.
