Tait into Match Play at British Amateur​

ST. ANDREWS, SCOTLAND– Seton Hall golfer Gregor Tait (Martlesham Heath, England) fired a 4-under-par, 138, during the stroke play portion of the 2021 British Amateur, and has qualified for match play action.

The top 64 players during stroke play qualify for the match play tournament.

Tait tied for third in a massive field of 144 golfers with an impressive 4-under-par, 71-67-138, easily qualifying to advance in the prestigious event. He used an eagle on the par-5, No. 10 hole to fuel his opening round, and tallied six birdies in his strong 4-under-par second round.

Tait will face Sam Bairstow in the opening round. Bairstow finished 62nd in the stroke play portion with a 6-over-par, 77-71-148.

The first Amateur Championship was held at Hoylake in 1885 where 44 players from 12 clubs contested a series of match play rounds. Former winners include Bobby Jones, Sergio Garcia and José María Olazábal.

Today, the championship is one of the biggest and most prestigious amateur events in the world, with players competing in a mixed stroke play and match play format over 6 days. The winner secures exemptions to The Open Championship and the US Open, and by tradition, an invitation to play in the Masters Tournament.

After graduating this spring, Tait will return for a fifth year to compete for the Seton Hall men's golf team this fall.

Wish the article would tell us which course it was being played on. Have to do some research online to find it's Nairn Golf Club in Scotland. Basic journalism - who, what, when, where, why, how?

Also, the second and third to last paragraphs are lifted word for word straight off the event's website. Not a good look for the SH sports information dept.

Thank you for researching. I wanted to know which course as well. Never played Nairn but it is rated nicely.
