SCOTTISH champion Steven Young fought his way into the last 32 of the

British Boys' Championship at Glenbervie yesterday, but refused to be

complacent. After two close fought affairs, he could be spotted on the

practice ground.

''I'm not happy with my short game,'' complained the 16-year-old

Inverallochy youngster, whose carelessness on and around the greens

prompted something of a scramble against lesser English lights James

Hepworth and Chris Robinson.

Two down after eight holes in the morning, Young was let off the hook

by Hepworth, who three-putted three times. Against Robinson, the Scot

bridged a one-hole deficit with seven to play by winning four holes on

the spin .

While Scottish caps Steven Craig and David Patrick fell by the

wayside, team-mates Sam Cairns and Chris Kelly marched on. Cairns

hammered Peter Drew with four birdies in a 5 and 4 win, and Kelly sunk

James Boyer 6 and 5 in one of the day's biggest victories.
