Only Scots remain for Irish U16s

Having taken a narrow lead following the morning foursomes on day two of the Four Nations Development Matches at The Royal Dublin Golf Club, Ireland secured three wins and one half from the eight singles matches to halve the overall match with Wales.

After a seven matches to five win over the Netherlands on the opening day, the host nation now requires a win against Scotland on the final day to capture the trophy.

The Netherlands defeated Scotland by six and a half matches to five and a half with Jeroen Krietemeijer securing the all important point for the Dutch side with a 1 hole win over Jordyn Rhind.
