Great to be there to see this. Amazing journalist and an even better person.
The Lifetime Achievement Award goes to Hugh MacDonald @Redblaes. A journalist at @heraldscotland for over 40 years before moving to @MailOnlineScot around 10 years ago, Hugh is perhaps most famously known for his work following Andy Murrayโs career. #ScottishPressAwards2026
