STIRLING UNI INVITATIONAL AT DUNDONALD

Stirling and Independent Schools share the team championships as Coghlan sails on!

3^rd Annual University of Stirling Golf Tournament

9-11 September 2013

Dundonald Links, Ayrshire

Day two of the 3^rd Annual University of Stirling 54-hole Golf Tournament saw challenging and breezy conditions over the 7,100 yards Black Course at Dundonald Links in Ayrshire. The best university and youth players in the UK were focussed on team prizes today and making the 36 hole cut, prior to the individual championship deciders tomorrow (Wednesday). In the Women’s Team event, it was the youngsters from the Independent Schools Golf Association – Gee Won-Park, Ashleigh Greenham and Ellie Goodall – who took the honours with a combined score of 323, thirteen shots ahead of the runners-up University of St Andrews, with the hosts University of Stirling in third. Greenham goes into the final day of the individual championship with a comfortable four shot lead over the more experienced Sinead Sexton (NUI Maynooth).

In the men’s event, it was the hosts from the University of Stirling – 2013 SGU Order of Merit winner and Scottish Golfer of the Year, Jack McDonald; 2013 Scottish Amateur Champion Zander Culverwell; 2013 Scottish Student Champion Mathias Eggenberger; 2013 Irish Amateur Close Champion; 2012 Scottish Boys Champion Craig Howie;  and 2012 English Amateur finalist Henry Tomlinson – who swept the board, defeating a high class SGU Select team – Connor Syme, Jamie Savage, Scott Gibson, George Burns, Ben Kingsley and Stuart Easton - by a formidable fifteen shots. In third place, the combined students from the University of Ulster/Queen’s University Belfast narrowly held off their southern compatriots from National University of Ireland, Maynooth and Trinity College Dublin.  In the individual event, Daragh Coghlan from TCD added an impressive 73 to yesterday’s 71 for a level par total of 144 to lead Culverwell and Eggenberger by three and four respectively. The tournament ends tomorrow, with a final 18 holes for both women and men.
