*Break of tie
Stephen Toland (13) and Tony McDermott (19) blended superbly to score a fantastic 48 points and a one point-winning margin in the George Sweeney Trophy at Prehen on Saturday. They headed off the challenge of Eamonn McCourt (10) and young Sean Coyle (20) a combination that was half of the third placed team in the recent Texaco Team event. Spare a thought for the pair who finished third on 46 points, Martin Doherty (18) and Pat McAlister (25). They scored 46 points but incurred penalty points when a putter was dropped on the green striking a ball that was no more than two feet from the hole. Such are the vagaries of golf. No doubt that the handicapper will be very interested in these performances.
