Talented trio are named as ambassadors
Three promising Perth and Kinross golfers have been appointed ambassadors for the Barrie Douglas Foundation.
Blairgowrie trio Gregor Graham, Cormac Sharpe and Katy Alexander took on the roles this week as they competed in the Scottish Boys and Girls’ Championships being played over their home course.
National coach and foundation trustee Spencer Henderson said: “Gregor, Cormac and Katy are all progressing very well and given Barrie’s close ties to Perth and Kinross Golf, in particular, we are thrilled that they have accepted these ambassadorial roles.
“We are keen to support them in any way we can and help with their ongoing development.
“They will be sporting the foundation logo on their new Druids kit and raising awareness of our work at tournaments.”
Scotland U18 internationalist Gregor (15) is a two times winner of the Blackadders Barrie Douglas Scottish Junior Masters and currently leads the U18 Order of Merit.
Like fellow international squad member and Blairgowrie youngster Cormac (15), a Paul Lawrie Junior Jug winner, he featured in the Scottish team which won an international Quadrangular event, with backing from the foundation.
Gregor recently helped the Scots to a bronze at the European Boys Team Championships in Poland.
