Club Championships

Club Championship weekend at the racecourse for both men and ladies with round one played on Saturday and the concluding round two played today. Steamy hot weather on Saturday was replaced by slightly cooler conditions today with a squally shower or two towards the end of the competition. Only a small field this year with many players away, but that doesn't diminish the achievements of the winners.
Special thanks to Richard Holmes and his team for preparing the course for the championships, a very early cut of the greens on both days and different pin positions on both days as well.

In the ladies competition, two steady rounds from Sam Whiting ensured that she captured the Ladies Club Champion title with a total of 178. Lady captain Sian Soanes was runner-up. In the ladies nett competition, Dianne McIntyre led after round one and continued her good form to the end to win the cup with rounds of 74 and 73.

In the men's competition after day one, three players were separated by a single stroke with Dave Warwick just ahead of Richard Mead and Jeremy Twaits. But it was Richard Mead who saved his best round for day two and became Club Champion with a second round 79 and a total of 160. Dave Warwick was runner-up just 3 strokes adrift.
There were two divisions in the nett competition. Richard also finished ahead in the division 1 nett standings but, as the rules say you cannot win both, the nett division 1 prize went to Dave Warwick with a total of 141. Jeremy Twaits was the runner-up. In division 2, Brian Grace was the round one leader but was overtaken on day 2 and the prize went to Mike Miller with a total of 161. Roy Whiting was runner-up on 163.

  1. Massive thanks should also go to Paul Tebbutt for giving up many hours of his weekend to be both the starter and the score recorder for the competition. Thanks also to his glamorous assistant Judy for helping with the scores!
