Rest of Lancs stung by Southport & DGA

SOUTHPORT & District GA had a sting in their tail as they won three off the last four singles to defeat the Rest of Lancs 10-8 at Hesketh.

After sharing the foursomes, SDGA gained only one point from the top four singles, Southport & Ainsdale’s Paul Howard edging to a one hole success over Steven McGlynn, from Blackburn.

Earlier, county champion John Carroll, from Huyton & Prescot, dispatched his Red Rose team-mate, Hillside’s Richie Ritchie Blundell, 4&3 in the top pairing.

 But Rest of Lancs, two points ahead at four singles, won only one of the last eight, Tom Stuart prevailing by one hole against his former Chorley clubmate Richard Kilshaw, from Hillside.

Meanwhile, Blundell at least had something to celebrate – he holed in one at the second during the foursomes.
