Sunday 19th June – The Ballantyne Cup
A fine day drew a field of 22 for the 2024 edition of the Ballantyne Cup, one of our oldest trophies, dating as it does from 1909. Any advantage to be gained from the generous pin positions was perhaps cancelled out by the speed of the greens – coming to their best just now – and with a notable exception, scoring was steady rather than spectacular. That one exception was Jamie Stewart who carded a scratch 60 – 3 under par – to return a score of 57 and win by 6 from his nearest challenge. Superb golf Jamie, many congratulations
