North of Ireland Championship.

Held annually at Royal Portrush Golf club http://www.royalportrushgolfclub.com/ this championship makes great demands of the top amateurs taking part. This year the weather was reasonably king for the greater part of the week with qualifying on the Monday and Tuesday and match play for the rest of the week culminating with the final on Friday afternoon. Watching the young amateurs display shot-making of a very high standard was an inspiration. This year the final was fought out between Wayne Telford (Rathmore GC) and Paul Cutler (Portstewart GC). Telford may have come into the match as the underdog but walked away the winner, four-and-two.
