Grammar and Cults will meet in final

Paul Lawrie Aberdeen Schools golf

Aberdeen Grammar School and Cults Academy will contest next Tuesday’s Paul Lawrie Foundation sponsored Aberdeen Schools’ Golf Championship at Hazlehead No 1 Course.

In tonight’s semi-finals over the Hazlehead No 2 Course, Cults beat Robert Gordon’s College 2-1 whilst Grammar drew 1½-1½ with defending champions Hazlehead Academy but went through by two holes on a holes-up countback.

There was a real dramatic conclusion to the Grammar/Hazlehead match. Nick MacAndrew and William Rennie won the first tie for Grammar by beating Sean Stewart and Scott Main 4 & 2. Hazlehead’s second pair of Michael Angus and Elliot Duff then levelled the overall score at 1-1 by beating Louis Kinnear and Mark Wareham 2 up.

In the final tie, Hazlehead’s Grant Joss and William Mathers were one up on Grammar’s Andrew Burr and Cameron Johnstone playing the last hole. However, it was the Grammar team who were celebrating when Cameron holed his 10 foot birdie putt to halve the tie and allow his team to progress into the final on the countback.
