Spaces at Llangollen next week – a beautiful and brilliant Autumn course!!
Maxitours at fantastic Vale Royal.
Vale Royal is now a premier course in Cheshire and a firm favourite with my players. It oozes class from the moment you drive into the property.
I first played here in 1998 and there were saplings everywhere. It has now matured into a classic Cheshire Parkland course and is fantastic to play. The clubhouse is as good as it gets.
Thanks to Ian Embury and everyone at this venue for looking after us so well today. The food and hospitality was excellent.
Maxitours regular Richard Williamson loves his golf and he plays 3 times a week.
‘I bet you can’t wait to watch the Ryder Cup?’ I asked him.
‘ Not really, I cant get too excited about it to be honest.’
There must be something wrong with him. I can’t sleep I am so excited. Come on Luke and the lads.
Paul Evans has entered the Algarvian Classic to break up the Winter blues. He has been on the past four trips and loves it but normally finishes last. This year he has hand-picked a team and confidently decided to give them a run out today. When he handed the card in they were in last place with 70 points.
‘Is it too late to pull out?.’
Ted Lacey is the Alexander Isak of golf. He played for two different teams in this weeks event. His terrible lack of loyalty meant he left Graham Jenkinson’s team with whom he finished 22nd and thought he upgraded to Andy Taylors team – unfortunately they finished 32nd today.
Pete Anstis and his Ringway team look quite intelligent but the on-course nearest the pin marker is a tube and the paper where you write your name is in the tube. They were all completely baffled by this latest technology.
In todays event The Yorkshire team of Rob Platt, Tom Broadhead, Tim Barstow and Darren Wilson came over from Barnsley and chopped their way to an impressive 87 points to take first place.
Martin Hammans Sale team were 2nd and Colin Roberts took 3rd.
In the overall two-day event 13 teams played both days and coming out on top in a hard fought contest was Colin Roberts, Steve Jones, Ian Snape and Dr Andy Williamson. They followed up their 84 points on Tuesday with another 84 today to win on their ‘last 18 hole’ card play off. Congratulations!
Gary Neiles, John Longworth, John Colquitt and Martin Molyneaux have been runners up three times this year and were gutted to narrowly miss out again.
Well played everybody.
Paul Fell recorded a two on the par four 14th hole and will talk you through it if you ask him.
Thanks for your unrivalled support,
Tim
