Jake Hapgood
Welshman Jake Hapgood looks like he could be a threat in this week's Radisson Blu sponsored West of Ireland Championship.
The 21-year old international teed it up in Tuesday's TaylorMade Winter Series at Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links and resisted the rain and stiff breeze to head for Rosses Point with the top gross prize.
Playing off plus three, Hapgood went out in two-under par with three birdies and a bogey on his card before coming home in one-over by following bogeys at the 10th and 12th hole with a birdie at the 13th and five finishing pars for a one-under 70.
Castle’s Alex Gleeson, a former junior member at Rosses Point, will also be fancied to challenge for the West of Ireland after he shot a one-over 72 to take second in the gross.
Greystones' Robbie O'Brien won the nett with a 72 of six, edging out Powerscourt two-handicapper Declan King by a stroke.
Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links will host its annual Senior and Junior Scratch Cups on April 13 while the TaylorMade Winter Series will continue until the end of April.
