Both representatives from the local region fell just short in their quest to reach the grand final of the Northern Matchplay Golf Championship.
Queensbury's Karl Smith put on a tremendous display and just lost out on the final green to Rotherham's Teejay White in the individual section of the Yorkshire regional final at Pannal Golf Club.
Smith won his morning semi-final in comfortable fashion then pushed the South Yorkshire youngster all the way in the afternoon. It needed a 25 foot putt from White on the 18th green to secure his place in the grand final at The Alwoodley Golf Club next week.
