SCOTS BOYS' TITLE HOPES DISAPPEAR
WITH 7-2 DEFEAT BY SWEDEN

Scotland's hopes of repeating last year's success in the boys' quadrangular contest against France, Italy and Sweden were smashed on Day 2 at Parco di Roma Golf Club today.
The Scots, beaten 6-3 by a strong French side on Thursday, were even more comprehensively beaten by Sweden who finished victors by 7-2.
The Scots trailed 2-1 after the foursomes - the morning victory coming from Sam McLaren (King James VI) and Tom Spencer (Inchmarlo) - before they lost five of the six singles.
Scotland's only afternoon winner was Michael Stewart (Troon Welbeck).
France beat Italy in the other Day 2 match, which means that their Saturday encounter against Sweden, who also have a 100 per cent record, will be for the title.
