Dillon and Quinlan take Portmarnock Links prizes

Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links

Andrew Dillon and Stephen Quinlan took the top prizes as a field of 78 battled for a little glory in the weekly Tuesday Winter Series outing at Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links.

Playing off one out of Carrickfergus, Dillon took the top nett prize on countback from Delgany professional Mark Staunton with a three over 74.

The gross went to Quinlan from Halpenny Golf, whose three over 74 edged out Pure Golf Leopardstown’s Michael McDermott by virtue of his better back nine.

Former tour regular and reigning Irish PGA champion Damien McGrane was third with a 75.
