Irish amateur Alex Maguire has narrowly missed out on a spot at the 2022 Open Championship after losing his semi-final at the Amateur Championship.
Maguire was hoping to replicate the feat of James Sugrue who won the event in 2019 but fell agonisingly short of winning the premiere Amateur tournament.
The Laytown-Bettystown man came up against South African Aldrich Potgieter but ultimately lost the match 3&1.
