Published:
HAZLEHEAD'S David Law, the Scottish men's amateur champion and Scottish boys' match-play championship title holder, and Ross Kellett (Colville Park) have flown to Argentina – courtesy of the Scottish Golf Union – to play in this week's Juan Carlos Tailhade Cup at Los Lagartos Country Club, Buenos Aires, from Thursday to Sunday.
The pair will be joined by the top Scot in the world amateur rankings, James Byrne (Banchory), and last year's Scottish boys' match-play champion Michael Stewart (Troon Welbeck), students at Arizona State University and East Tennessee State University respectively, for the Argentina men's amateur championship at Buenos Aires Golf Club which starts tomorrow.
The SGU is also funding the trip for Byrne and Stewart. The latter championship tees off with a 36-hole stroke-play qualifying competition from which the leading 64 go forward to the match-play stages.
Tommy Fleetwood (Formby Hall), winner of the Scottish open amateur stroke-play title at Murcar Links earlier this year, and another 18-year-old, Eddie Pepperell (Drayton Park) is also playing in both events.
