Eddie McCormack continued his fine form of late as he cruised to a stunning 14 shot victory at the Leinster Mid Amateur championships at Charlesland GC.

McCormack (Galway Bay) who set a new course record on Friday afternoon with his score of 69, carded a 1 under par third round 71 to claim the title with an impressive 14 shots to spare from 2016 Winner Jim Carvill (Banbridge) who finished with a total score of 225.

McCormack’s is certainly a man in form as the Charlesland win follows hot on the heels of the Connacht Mid Amateur Open Championship he won last month.
