ELLIOT SALTMAN KEEPS
SCOTLAND FLAG FLYING
IN SPANISH MEN'S EVENT
Elliot Saltman from Craigielaw kept the Scottish flag flying in the Spanish men's open amateur golf championship when the match-play stages began at Desert Springs Golf Resort.
Uncapped Saltman, a +3 player and the only Scot among the 32 qualifiers for the match-play, reached the last eight with a thumping 7 and 6 win over Englishman Adam Hodkinson followed by a 3 and 1 victory in the second round over a Spaniard by the name of Sebastian Garcia - no relation to Sergio!
Saltman, pictured right, now plays Paul Waring, one of four Englishmen through to the quarter-finals.
The others are top seed John Parry who plays Finland's Miro Veijalainen, No 3 seed Gary Boyd who plays Portugal's Pedro Figueiredo and 23rd qualifier Ben Evans to meets France's Baptiste Chapellan.
