Murphy back in the groove at Kealkill

David Murphy has his Munster senior championship campaign back on track after a last-shot win over John Creedon at Kealkill.

Murphy’s form was patchy by his own standards but he was past the line in 15 shots. Creedon will look back on the contest with some regrets as he had chances to pull off a famous win.

Neither player had a good opening shot from the castle as they both missed the kerb, but Murphy was just fore. He won the second tip too, but Creedon took the third. Murphy got a great fourth. Creedon’s reply caught the left and missed that by 60m.
