Competition round up

Conditions were very different on Saturday for the May Stableford after a very dry April and early May. It wasn't quite like the Open at Royal Liverpool in 2006 but not far off.

Steve Dermott who hibernates in the Winter adjusted best to the conditions with a great score of 40 points followed by John Sadler with 39 points and Sean Corcoran was 3rd with 38 points, who beat Peter Courtenay on a card playoff.

Div 2 was won by Steve O'loughlin with 39 points who beat Paul Lloyd on a card playoff with new member Carl Williams 3rd with 38 points. There were 18 twos worth £9.20 each.

The 1st Mens Inviatation timesheet is available from Sunday for those of you wishing to play.

The Ladies Vets Silver Salver on Tuesday was won by Jan McGowan with 82-8-74 followed by Sharon Evans with 98-21-77 and Jackie Johnston 3rd with 105-27-78.


 

Caroline

Caroline is on a Four week run of Tournaments at present. Last week she lost to a birdie on the 19th in the semi final of the Cheshire Seniors to eventual winner and England teammate Cath Rawthore. This week she is away in France playing in the French Seniors just South of Biarritz where she is currently lying 6th after 2 rounds.

Next week is the English Seniors at South Staffs where I will be on Caddying duty before moving onto the Northern Seniors at Pleasington the following week so those of you who know me well my chocolate diet is going extremely well at the moment!


 

Greens update

Rod will be doing a Greens update next week but just to keep you up to date the greens are now being watered every night after our recent lack of rainfall and easterly winds. Speaking to some of the other local Professionals we all seem to be in the same boat with this at the moment. The Titleist Balata could make a comeback next week!
