Maxitours at Five Star Vale Royal!

Vale Royal was the superb setting for the latest Maxitour event. The early morning drizzle faded away to sunshine and the course was immaculate. ‘These are the best greens I have played on all year by a country mile’ was the general consensus.

Many thanks to Steve Graham and his wonderful staff for making us feel so welcome.

Today’s event was graced with a West End star- down to earth and friendly Irishman James Keegan. James has a principle role in the wonderful ‘Riverdance’ show. Despite having a very still head James needs to slow down his incredibly fancy leg action as he could only manage a 28 point haul.

Towards the end of the day there was a very attractive bride-to-be having a show around the clubhouse and wedding banqueting facilities. ‘Hey Tim those greens were great and this Crumpet’s not bad either’ said Alan Clough, as he chewed on his jam covered teacake.

Yorkshire man Steve Morfitt came over the hills from Barnsley this morning to play in his first Maxitours event. ‘Thars ad a reet gud dee’ he announced as he left the clubhouse after a solid 41 points.

Ex professional Fisherman Ken Jones hooked up with his good pal Kit Parkington and they recorded their first ever Maxitours podium finish after a marvellous 42 points for 3rd place. ‘We could have won last week as well but Ken was rubbish’ remarked Kit.

Charismatic Barry Rigby and Gordon Walker were delighted with second place after scoring 43 points, however, they will struggle to sleep tonight as they could only manage to score a 7 on the downwind par five last hole.

Darren Whittaker teamed up with Roy Harrison and the Shrigley Hall pair took the honours with 44 points, this was fireman Whittakers second win of the Summer season, and he has been docked yet another shot. Both players contributed well but Whittakers nearest the pin shot on the 10th which set up his birdie, was the shot of their round.

Attractive Amanda O’Brien won nearest the pin on the 6th hole and the 61 year old ‘Orangutan Joe’ Kirwan (longest arms in Cheshire ) won longest drive with his 310 yard effort.

Martin Williams was delighted after his fantastic approach on the par three 6th. He left himself a tricky 8 inch putt for some golf balls, however, he missed. ‘It moved a hell of a lot’ explained Martin seriously -as his playing partners chuckled in the background.

Millionaire Simon Hartland always has a massive inner battle with himself whether to enter the twos sweep or not, and he hit a new low today. When asked if he was going in the twos, he came out with the old chestnut ‘sorry I’ve come out without any money’.

Vegetarian Steve Rourke looked on in anguish as his low hook was heading for the lake on the beautiful 7th hole however Rourke was delighted when it struck a Canada goose and was deflected down the fairway.

Many thanks to everyone for playing today. The next event is the team of 4 event at the Alistair Mackenzie designed Hazel Grove on Thursday 9th June followed by Knutsford Golf Club on 23rd June.
