“A glorious day at a glorious venue” as one player described his experience after playing today.

The course was in superb condition with many comments about the greens and condition of the course in general.

Fraser with his catering and bar team were kept busy all day with a constant flow of hungry golfers with great quality food and drink with 5 star service as always.

Sarah Ormrod overcame her back issues and after a tentative start, as the round progressed, her back eased allowing her to finish with a superb birdie nett eagle on the Par 5 18^th which nudged her and partner Dave Greenwood into pole position on 43 points.

In 2^nd with 42 points was Simon Poucher and his 83 year partner Gordon Stow who rolled back the years proving that age is just a number. Well done Gordon !!

Scoring was exceptionally tight for other places with no fewer than 6 pairs tied for 3^rd on 41 points which then triggered count back calculations. Four pairs had 21 points each on the back 9 with it then going to who had the best last 6. Out of these 3 pairs they had 14 points each which then meant who had the best last 3 holes? Coming out on top was the pairing of Andy Buckley and Stuart Park having 8 points, Alison Shipston and James Brown next on 7 with Jim Clarke & Pete Ledger on 6.

PHEW !!! Thank you to my good friend PGA Professional Matt Turnock who worked all this out. He said he’d never known such a close result.

On the other end of the spectrum one player said of his partner “He had no issues at all hitting the woods, it was getting out of them that was the problem”.
