Adam Andrews, the 2008 Lancashire Boy's champion, has won the Faldo Series UK Championship at West Lancs Golf Club, Blundellsands, near Liverpool.

Andrews, representing the Ashton-in-Makerfield Golf Club, shot rounds of 68 and 70 - with ten birdies over the two rounds - to secure a four stroke victory over Henry Tomlinson (Royal Lytham & St Annes) and Paul Kinnear (Formby).

Andrews will be joined in September by Tomlinson (Boys' Under-18), Christopher Whatham (Boys' Under-16), Jenna Birch (Girls' Under-21) and the impressive Brogan Townend, who retained the Girls' Under-16 title.

The 15 year-old English international was also part of the England 2 squad that captured the team prize at the recent Scottish Girls' Under-16s Championship at the Strathmore Golf Centre in Perthshire.
