Maxitours Cheshire Classic Results from Mottram Hall and Prestbury

‘This event could well be the highlight of my golfing year.’ Praised nice guy Peter Maher. ‘Two great courses and fantastic weather!’

Thanks to everyone for supporting the event, I really hope you had a terrific tournament.

Mottram Hall is now a qualifying venue for the European Tour and is a terrific test of golf. The back nine is stunning and in the 13th and 17th holes it has two of the toughest holes in Cheshire. There were only two teams in the whole field who scored more points on the back nine than the front.

Tournament leader Ian Hassall was all of a dither before his final round. He wanted some lunch and was told that food was available in the main hotel.

‘Where is the hotel?’ He asked.

‘It’s that huge building behind you.’ Replied his partner.

Two of the worst golfers in Maxitours history won nearest the pin. Jonny Barton and John Farnsworth were the unlikely winners. Brilliant!

Winning today was Jim Caldwell’s team with 85 points narrowly beating Paul Fell and Paul Thompson’s team on the back 6 holes. Colin Roberts’ Alsager team took 4th place.

In the overall competition Gary Allis (12 shots) Ian Hassall (16) Rob Sutton (18) and Mark Taylor (19) managed to hang on to take first place with a solid 83 today to add to their super 95 points yesterday. They beat Paul Fells team by 2 shots and Jim Caldwell’s team by 6points. Well played chaps great golf.

Thanks for the 100% attendance once again and your superb etiquette, I love running these events.
