Let’s start with a tale of great competition from Saturday last weekend. 

WJ McGregor foursomes. All competitors played 36 holes on Saturday.

You may recall the description was  Walk 36 holes / play 18 – hitting only every second shot, in group of 6 .

Sounds great doesn’t it ? A bit of a walk but good golf hitting every second shot. How could it go wrong….what could happen after you’ve all walked 36 holes  ???……well……

At the end of the 36 holes the women’s scratch scores were even, Mel Evans and Jenny O’Connor against Jo McPhee and Marianne Stoettrup.

Soooo they then played another 3 holes, (39 holes now), and unbelievably they could not be separated.

The scores were still even ! Another 5 holes sudden death were played.  Congratulations to Mel and Jenny (a total of 44 holes) !

On Wednesday 35 Ladies played in a cool drizzly start. The competition was stableford.

Results

Nancy Inglis won the day and B Grade, with a terrific score of 36. Angela Cordell scored 34 to win A grade. Runner up in A Grade was Kathy Richards 33, and B Grade Marg Ivory 34. C Grade winner was Pat Gilchrist 34, runner up Joycelyn Moreland 31.

Nearest the pin; A Grade Kerry Petersen, B Grade Gudrun Wilkinson, C Grade Pat Gilchrist. Money hole Joycelyn Moreland.

Well done everyone !
