Maxitours at ‘The Mere’
‘The Mere’ home to the rich and the famous, was the latest fantastic setting for todays Maxitours event, the course was presented in wonderful condition.
The soft southerly wind direction led to great scoring conditions however Order of Merit leader Carl Kennedy had a ‘dose of the McIlroys’ as he missed a succession of easy putts on the front nine.
Clive Evans struck the ball wonderfully on the 9th hole and after he buttoned a drive and nailed his three wood he was devastated as on landing his Pinnacle unfortunately crashed into Simon Greenhalghs ridiculously long, longest drive marker and rebounded backwards several metres.
As the koi carp elegantly glided around the Mere atrium it was Neville Dennis who glided elegantly around the golf course and he ‘hooked up’ well with his team to record a magnificent 85 points early in the day. This score was challenged by the consistent Trevor Golds team who were delighted with 84 points.
Haydock Parks Terry Hill and his team were overjoyed with their 82 point haul, long suffering Hill has been in last place in the Order of merit for the majority of the season however charismatic Terry relishes the four man events where his contribution isn’t quite as vital and his team rallied around to ensure an career best 4th place, well played Terry.
Late in the day the Mere team were 10 under par standing on the last tee, scratch player Rick Pickard made a solid birdie and 4 handicap Matt Ford made a tremendous eagle which gave them first place after a better back nine.
Many thanks to Jon Gallagher of Cleveland Golf and Srixon for his continued tremendous support of the Mere events. A Maxitours record 152 golfers enjoyed the impressive Mere course and clubhouse, thanks also to Mark Bolar and his staff for their tremendous hospitality.
A final thank you to all players for your continued great support, I hope you enjoyed the day, Tim.
