One shot win sees former caddy Alan Tulleth seal finals place

The tour, for pros and amateurs, rolled into Arbroath Links and saw a total field of 28 players compete.

Also in the field was local former European Tour pro Peter Whiteford.

The tour’s format allows competitors a period of just over a week to complete their round and hand their scorecard to organisers.

Tulleth, who has caddied at St Andrews and for current tour pro David Law, came out on top by one shot after a brilliant five under par 65 from fellow amateur Joe Bryce and professional John Kelly.

John scored had the first hole in one on the Get Back to Golf Tour at the par three seventh.

Greg Paterson who finished fourth, forgot his three wedges, making his most lofted club a nine iron so did excellently to shoot a three under 67.

Event winner Tulleth said: “The Get Back to Golf Tour has been fantastic.

“The opportunity to play some great courses in Scotland every week against good fields has been excellent.

“Arbroath was in great condition and the greens were very good.

“It was actually the first time I had played it and really enjoyed the layout of the course with lots of different shots needed.

“I played really nice, controlled my ball well as it was really windy, and managed to hole some good putts to shoot 65.

“I’m delighted and buzzing for the Dumbarnie Links Final in October.”

The next event, being played at Musselburgh, started on Monday and runs until October 7 before heading to Longniddry for the final event on the October 8.

The various stage winners then meet at Dumbarnie Links for the grand final on October 25.
