Results from the Mere Golf and Country Club.

The Mere golf and country club was in superb condition for the final Maxitours event of the summer tour. The ‘refreshing’ drizzle didn’t dampen the players spirits and this great golf course was in top condition. Mark Boler and his greenstaff can be proud of the tremendous greens which got nothing but praise all day.

The venue is a playground for the rich and famous, at lunchtime Mere member Sir Alex Fergusson nearly choked on his bacon bap and hid behind his newspaper in the corner of the atrium as he caught sight of Roberto Mancini savouring a fresh pasta dish, complimented with a fine glass of Italian white wine.

When The Mere comes up on the Maxitours rota most players give their shoes an extra polish, comb their hair and put on their smartest golfing outfit. Kevin Barker bucked the trend today as he wore perhaps the worst sweater ever seen at a maxitours event. However this didn’t stop him making great pars on the 5th and 7th holes on his way to a respectable 35 points.

Willie Morgan became the latest Manchester United legend to play on Maxitours and he teamed up with Vale Royal owner Steve Graham. It was Graham who did most of the work appearing on the card 12 times. A birdie on the short twelfth was the highlight of his magical round. ‘The first time I got on the card was when it dropped out of our partners pocket and I trod on it by mistake’ said 8 handicapper Morgan. The home team picked up first prize with their tremendous 44 points.

Gary Garner continued his rich vein of form once again finishing second as he scored an excellent 43 points partnering Mark Green. Mytton Folds Ray Standing and Gary Davies, Andy Cunningham and Roger Percival from Lymm, Paul Granelli and Jonathon Brett from Mere all scored an excellent 42 points in the damp conditions.

Last match in was Kenny Jepsons happy go lucky group of four, ‘Any good wee man?’ asked scotsman Willie Morgan anxiously waiting to collect his first prize. He nearly fell off his chair when Kenny declared both pairs had scored a total of 48 points. ‘I had 22 with my partner and the other two had 26’ smiled Jepson with that famous twinkle in his eye.

Many thanks for supporting today’s event.
