Squires is a Euro star for England

Alan Squires

GOLF:

ALAN Squires played his part as England retained the European Seniors Men’s Team Championship at Fairhaven.

The prolific Oldham Golf Club member helped his country to a 4.5-0.5 victory in the final against Ireland, beating Maurice Kelly despite there being nothing to separate them at the turn.

Squires won three holes out of four from the 11th, thanks to a birdie and two pars, before claiming a two and one success.

It was yet another notable achievement for Squires, who lifted the English Seniors’ Amateur Championship for the first time in June.
