The Shotsaver Classic at Davenport GC
The Davenport Golf Course was ‘in the best condition in the history of the club’ according to the Secretary Chris Souter, indeed his sentiments were echoed by all the 96 Maxitours competitors in todays wonderful Shotsaver Classic tournament.
Image conscious Pete Myers has resorted to wearing all black on the golf course after putting on a few pounds in recent months, chubby Rob Tabbron is past caring however, and the misguided builder unfortunately decided a pair of white pants would be a ‘good look’ for todays event.
Terry Davison looked in good spirits as he made a loud entrance into the clubhouse ‘did you hear about my tremendous win our Wednesday section?’ shouted the Geordie. Unfortunately for Terry form is only temporary and he had to rely heavily on the more talented Geoff Haynes today as they recorded 40 points.
Maxitours legends Darren Whittaker and Ian King scored 42 points despite not scoring on the 16th hole. Darren owns a successful holiday caravan park within walking distance of the Davenport course, anyone wishing to take their wife on a caravanning holiday to Stockport please contact me or call into your local Psychiatric hospital ASAP.
Chunky Alex Jerman hit a wonderful drive to within four feet to set up a tremendous eagle on the 277 yard 2nd ‘it landed like a butterfly’ said Alex. ‘It was a good job my partner James Holman is a chiropractor’ continued Alex, ‘my back’s killing me, I’ve just carried him around 18 holes today!’ They were delighted with 44 points and 3rd place.
Brothers Mark and Paul Marshall were doing some serious bonding as they hugged and kissed each other after a wonderful 36 points on the first 13 holes. A poor finish which culminated in a solid three putt at the last for a disastrous seven led to some serious bickering ‘I can’t believe you missed that short one’ said Mark, ‘at least I wasn’t in the pond’ answered Paul quickly. Fourth place went to Manchesters’ Ted Ellis and Chris Dykens who got that Jean Van de Velde feeling as they also could only manage a seven at the last for their 44 points.
Jonny Chan and lucky Moby Rawthore eventually took the honours with a better last 6 holes to win on a card play off with a magnificent 45 points. Jonny enjoys socialising, singing and playing the piano and he was really partying on the course today after a mishit rescue club scuttled onto the green to set up a birdie at the first.
Many thanks to Steven and Jason Ballard from shotsaver for your fantastic sponsorship and to all competitors for your support of todays event, Tim
