Results from ridiculously good Romiley

Romiley was the latest superb Golf Club to host a Maxitours event . I don’t think I have ever had as many golfers tell me that they had such a great day.
‘I really enjoyed that! ’Reported Alan Leigh.
‘That is superb- sign me up for next year!’ Begged Jack Coleman.
‘That is one of the best courses I have played for a long time’. Dale Wallace beamed.
‘What a beautiful course!’ Praised six handicapper Paul Browne ‘I never knew Romiley was this good,,those greens were also rolling brilliantly.’

This is a lovely place to play golf. The course layout is clever and the course is always excellent in the Summer months. Many thanks Romiley, we will be back by popular demand next year!

Thanks to all the catering staff, especially the long haired Barman who did the late shift. He pumped up the clubhouse music with some 70’s classics to liven me up at the end of the day.

Donna Sully’s team witnessed a miracle when she managed to hit a magpie on the head with her tee shot on the 8th fairway. I asked her if it survived and she said that it was fine and just flew away. Either Magpies are tough around here or she uses a very soft compression golf ball or she doesn’t hit it hard enough. You decide.

Jack Colemans team are lovely guys but they are right up there with the worst teams ever to compete in Maxitours events. They were overjoyed to record 72 points today. I have never seen four average golfers look so happy.

In today’s event three teams scored 82 points to share second place and they all scored 39 on the front nine and 43 on the slightly easier closing nine!

Losing the back six play off was Jim Clarke (11) Chris Clarke (12) Cameron Isherwood (5) and Pete Ledger (18) .This competitive team has had a very quiet few months by their high standards but they were getting back to their best today.

Bob Pickthalls(15) team Birchwood finished 3rd Rob Roden(13) Dave Thomas(18) and Steve Lamont(8) all played well for a change.

The Denton team of Garry Owen (10) Alistair Holloway (13) Mark Bone (11) and Steven Yeadon (11) won the card play off thanks mainly to the seven points they picked up on the tough 16th hole. Excellent.

Taking 1st place was Stockport Golf Clubs Jonny Lord (15) and Sun tanned Swinton primary school teacher Jonny Noblet (6) they teamed up with Rhos on Sea’s Alex Jarman (6) and Ed Stubbs (18).
This was the XENTUM sponsors team who do a great job supporting our order of merit and the team had never played with each other before – they all contributed well to win by an impressive 5 shots.

Great golf guys – everyone goes home happy when the sponsor team wins !

Many thanks for your 100% attendance. Incredible.

Yours in Golf,
Tim
