Winner takes all as Ireland take on Scotland at Royal Portrush

Home Internationals

Ireland face Scotland at Royal Portrush today in a winner-takes-all battle as they bid to retain their Amateur Home International title for the Raymond Trophy.

Ireland rekindled their hopes of securing back to back successes when they overcame spirited Wales 9.5-5.5 — and then an amazing twist in fortunes at the end of the day put the Scots just ahead in the table.
