Captain spurs Munster to overwhelm champions Leinster

STUNG into action after a poor showing on day one of the Golfsure sponsored Youth Interprovincial Championship at Lahinch, Munster’s young golfers well and truly delivered the goods when they overwhelmed champions Leinster 8-1 yesterday.

Munster had suffered a 7/2 beating against Ulster first time out on Wednesday and non-playing captain Pat Murphy from Dungarvan wasn’t pleased. Along with coach Fred Twomey, he told a few home truths at the evening dinner.

“I told them that I was not at all happy with their display,” he said “and feared that their championship hopes were in tatters. They are a talented bunch, well prepared, but simply did not perform to their ability.”
