Corey Edgar is crowned winner at Elgin Golf Club’s Five-Day Open
A DOMINANT Corey Edgar picked up the Kynoch Shand Cup at Elgin Golf Club’s Five-Day Open.
Edgar topped the leaderboards by three shots after the opening two days, with scores of 71 and 68 for a gross of 139.
He continued his form when the matchplay golf began, beating Billy Devine 4/3 in the last 16 of the Kynoch Shand - which was competed for by the top 16 golfers from the first two days out of the 117 participants.
He then recorded back-to-back 2/1 victories over Brent MacLeman and Craig Hay Smith to reach the final, where John Westwood stood in his way. Westwood was swept aside by Edgar, who was a 4/3 winner.
