AMATEUR GOLF, PGA IRISH REGION
Galway’s Gavan Keogh and European Tour player Gavin Moynihan took the top prizes on a day of excellent scoring in the Taylor Made Winter Series at a bitterly cold Portmarnock Links.
No fewer than 94 players braved the elements in light winds and it was three-handicapper Keogh who took the best nett, carding a four-under 67 to win by a shot from Gold Coast’s Michael White and Alps Tour professional Jonny Yates.
