Limited spaces at Romiley Golf Club next week Tues 6th Aug – another cracking course!
Maxitours at lovely Lymm
Lymm is becoming a firm favourite with Maxitours players. The hospitality is first class and the course is a brilliant layout. A firm fast running front nine and a more challenging parkland back nine provided a stiff test for everyone.
Martin Williams is a regular Maxitours player and a member at Lymm he was out early this morning brushing the steps around the tees to get the course in even better shape for us today. Thanks to everyone at Lymm for their efforts. What a club!
Matt Turnock (England golf coach of the year 2019) ran the first half of the day for me whilst I visited the rough at Ganton Golf Club in a pro am, so the report is shorter than usual as I am behind on things!
Scoring was excellent as most par 5’s were in range for the bigger hitters and there were a few drivable risk and reward par 4’s which also boosts the scoring.
Neale Laurent and Jim Caldwells team set the early pace with 87 points matched by Steve Austins team late in the day.
Simon Raine continued his good form with 88 points but this was pipped on the back nine by Mark Foley, Karl Marginson, Noel Holoham and Colin Tichias.
Winning was Austin McBride(3) Steve Best (4) Chris Massey (2) and Geoff Bickerton (5) . All these guys love their golf and have represented the Cheshire seniors in the past year. They had 13 birdies and an eagle between them. Austin was class but Chris Massey was the main man recording 5 birdies and an eagle. – Excellent.
Thanks to everyone for your 100% attendance and unrivalled etiquette today.
Yours in golf, Tim
