Renfrewshire Golf Union’s boys' team travelled to Cardross for the first match of the season against Dunbartonshire and came home with a well earned drawn match.

Jack Currie (Greenock), the current county champion, showed his class with a 7 and 6 victory over Bearsden’s Matt Waterstone and there were solid wins for Craig Orr (Cochrane Castle) and Conor Toal (Old Ranfurly).

  

Jamie Stewart, also Old Ranfurly, fought hard to finish all square against Hayston’s Stuart Goodfellow and, with Ross Robertson, another Old Course player, coming down the last one up, it looked as if an early season away victory was on the cards.

   

However, his opponent, Greg Fitsimmons from Windyhill took the wind out of the Renfrewshire sails by holing a 20ft putt to square the game and the match.
