Dungannon's Dwayne Mallon followed a 72 on the Sandy Hills Links with a 69 on the Old Tom Morris Links to win the McGinley Motors sponsored Rosapenna Senior Scratch Cup.

He finished one stroke clear of Malone’s Matthew McClean and County Sligo’s Ruairi O’Connor.

Gweedore's Pol O Maolagain won the Junior Scratch Cup by six shots on 10-over 153 from Vaughan Valley's Paul Duffy with Rosapenna’s Enda McMenamin third on 160 and Paul Daly fourth with 161.

Rory Leonard and Michael Ryan shot 68s in the morning to lead the Senior Scratch Cup by a shot from Stefan Greenberg and O'Connor with Niall Carroll carding a 71 and 72s for Dwayne Mallon, Kealan Quigg, Jack Madden, Matthew McClean, Owen Crooks and JJ Logue.

Former multiple winners Connor Doran (73) and Eddie McCormack (74) had work to do but there was also a 74 for 16-year-old local talent Ryan Griffin as Ben Best shot 76.

Showers sprinkled the afternoon play on the par-71 Old Tom Morris Links but it was Mallon who emerged victorious, carding a two-under 69 to claim victory by a shot from Balmoral's Matthew McClean on two-under 141.
