Bert wins his first TAMS Comp - 26th July

As the glorious weather continues, we had 26 starters contesting our strokeplay competition.

Not for the first time, the results show that as the morning progresses and the temperature rises, the scores come tumbling down.

It is also very much the case that the age profile of our players increases towards the end of the field.

With a nett score of 28, Bert Cottrell won his first competition with the TAMS and Wilson Struthers continues his consistent season with nett 29 for second place.

Behind them the field was packed, with Steve Baczkowski (our senior TAM) on 30 and Jim McAuslin (at 90 years old), Peter Barclay and Bill Hardcastle (a younger TAM) all on 31.

Sandy Macfarlane birdied no 4 with a fine second which nearly went in and Ken Davey was nearest on no 7 and he converted his nearie with a fine birdie.

TAMS were reminded that there is no competition on Thursday 2nd August, when Peebles will host its men's Senior Open.
