Lowey and Jones to contest golf showpiece

Paul Lowey and Davy Jones will battle it out in Saturday's final of the Grant Thornton Isle of Man Golf Championship at Peel.

That’s after Thursday evening's semi-finals.

Pre-tournament favourite Lowey, a three-times former champion, was a 5&4 winner against eight-times former champ Gary Wilson.

But there was no doubt of the match of the night as Ramsey player Jones, last year’s beaten finalist, defeated Rowany’s Tom Gandy – a terrific battle eventually settled at the 19th hole.

Tomorrow’s final will start at 10am with the second round due to tee off at 2pm – full coverage on Manx Radio.
