Finlay took an early lead yet Fraser managed to keep in touch and was 2 down after 12, but his drive at 15 caught the heavy rough and Fraser lost the hole to go dormie 3 down. Back came Fraser winning both 16 & 17 to take the game down the last hole however Finlay hit 2 great shots into the middle of the green to clinch the match.
A great game played in great spirits gave us a great champion.
