| Bond Wins Greek Island Shoot-out |
| |
Liam Bond beat Paul Wesselingh over
the final six holes to win the Aegean Airways Pro-am
on three under par, after the favourite for the inaugural
event in Crete faltered with a horrific eight at the
short par-four 12th hole.
Bond pressed on steadily to add a second-round one-under-par
70 to his opening 69 to finish with a comfortable three-stroke
margin, on 139, in the new PGAsE-endorsed event.
Wesselingh, level with the Welsh challenger after the
first round, could do no better than a 73 following his
disaster hole, to finish on level par, two ahead of Scotland's
Willie Milne and Kyle Rushall in joint third place.
In a successful start to what seems destined to become
an annual event on the PGAs of Europe calendar, the association's
newest full members, Bulgaria, played a prominent part
on the leader board.
Neil Turley, who has instigated an educational programme
in the Eastern European country, shared joint fifth spot
on three over par, with Craig Phillips, both of whom
fielded Bulgarian representatives in the pro-am.
Turley's team was second in the team event which was
won by England's Kyle Rushall and his trio.
