Maxitours at red hot Ringway

The sun continues to shine on Maxitours players this Spring as Meditteranean conditions hit South Manchester this afternoon.

It wasn’t a pretty sight but even Jim Clarke had his shorts on today.

The course is a cracker and fairways and greens were presented to the usual high standard expected at Ringway Golf Club. The hospitality was also first class.

‘I’ve not played at all this Winter before last week’ Declared likeable Ray Sims after dusting off his clubs.

‘Id completely forgotten how bad I am.’ He admitted. Ray played well today to be fair and helped his team to a respectable 80 points.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves on this great Manchester Golf course and it was a real pleasure to see so many happy customers.

A Maxitours first happened today. On the par three 8th hole Simon Peters chipped in for an unlikely two. Ian Hassall then downed his 18 footer closely followed by Mike Hassall whose ball flew in the hole like a rat down a drain pipe. The pressure was on a shaking Martin Mellor but he held his nerve and stroked in his ten footer as the team completed a quartet of 2’s. Terrific.

In todays event the leading scores were earlier in the day as players made the most of still conditions and receptive greens. Later in the day a breeze picked up and the greens firmed up a little.

Dave Goodwin, Phil Robinson, Dave Snape and Dave Greenwood are terrific blokes and they had their best result for a little while finishing tied third with 86 points. A score which was matched by Sandiway team of Gary Neiles, John Colquitt Charles Hewitt and James Connor.

Rob Platts Yorkshire team set off early this morning and posted 89 points, six points on the last was a great finish to their round.

Winning today was Bramhall Parks Jon Hudson, Andy Corner, Mike Hill and Rob Blain. The team recorded three two’s and all gelled really well. They only dropped a single shot all day and that was on the easy opening hole. Rob Balin was the outstanding performer as he picked up 7 shots for his team. Class. Well played chaps.

Thanks to everyone for your 100% attendance today. Ringway general manager Tracy Rawlinson is brilliant to deal with and she continues to be amazed by the integrity and reliability of all my players. Thanks so much.
