WELSH GOLFING UNION:
ROBERTS TAKES CARAD TITLE

After a relatively slow start to the season, Stuart Roberts won the Carad Trophy last weekend after an excellent last round 65. Roberts earned 100 valuable Konica Order of Merit points which moves him up to sixth place in the table and into the automatic (top 7) selection places for the Home Internationals.

Kyron Sullivan and Matthew Griffiths also made the most of the absence of Wales' top 6 players (competing in the European Team Championships in Italy) with second and third place finishes respectively.

With only 3 events remaining in the 1999 Konica Order of Merit, Neil Matthews continues to hold a healthy lead, however, Craig Williams, Lee Harpin, Ian Campbell and Jamie Donaldson are all more than capable of overtaking his should he slip.

The next event in the Konica Order of Merit is the Clwyd Open to be played at Wrexham and Prestatyn Golf Clubs on 10th and 11th July.
