In the first semi final Harry Hunter-Mapp secured a number of birdies to establish a 3 hole lead. James Trant managed to claw it back to 1 hole before Harry won the 16th hole. A share of the spoils on the 17th lead to the shaking of hands for a 2 1 win to Harry.
In the second semi final Jeehvan Singh played par golf for 13 holes aided by some terrific bunker play whereas Charlie was unlucky with a number of lipped out puts. Jeehvan established a 4 hole advantage by the 13th before dropping a shot on the 14th for Charlie to claw it back to 3. A terrific tee shot on the long par 3 15th by Charlie ensured that he won the hole. However, a wayward drive on the 16th by Charlie left him with much to do and Jeehvan duly won the hole to take the tie by 3 and 2.
