In an exciting finish to this year's OOM Stewart Henderson narrowly wins award from Graham Bell, with the title only being decided on the last putt on the last green at Blairgowrie.

Due to cancellation of Annual Dinner in March, the presentation of the McCrea Trophy to Stewart was delayed until the West of Scotland Open at Ranfurly Castle in June 2018. Stewart is pictured below receiving the trophy from Jonathan Campbell, Director at McCrea Financial Services, our main Sponsor.
