Room for 2 or 4 players at Lymm next Tuesday
Results from Magnificent Manchester Hopwood
Many thanks to PGA Coach of the year 2018 Matt Turnock for running my event today:
The superb venue of Manchester Hopwood (previously used for European Tour School Stage 1 Qualifying) was in tip top condition. There were plenty of compliments throughout the day for their Head Greenkeeper Matt on the excellent condition of the course. Everyone agreed that the greens were fantastic.
‘That is my favourite Maxitours venue’. Remarked vastly experienced Rob Weston. ‘This has to be the best course in Mancjester.’
The excitement of the first day of the Open was in the air. On hearing of Rory McIlroy’s opening quadruple bogey 8 one player commented “He did what !! even I didn’t take that many on my first hole today!!!”
Rory certainly could have done with Tony’s Prices finish after the friendly Matlock man impressively holed out on the 18th for an eagle “2” for 5 points to seal a sensational win alongside his playing partner Chris Gregory on 50 points. Well played chaps!
Rick Shaw and Jonathon Oldknow took 2nd with 47 points and Simon Taylor and Mike Savage had a career best 3rd place also with 47 points to the surprise of many including themselves.
Thanks to everyone for your support.
Nearest Pin 13th was won by Mike Savage – 1 x Doz AD333 Srixons
Nearest Pin 16th was won by Jim Clarke with a superb shot to short range, unfortunately the putt was missed !!! – 1 x Doz AD333 Srixons
2’s £215 pot – 6 Pro V1’s or 14 Srixons per two.
