Clapham Common
A windy Sunday for the semi-final of the South London Clapham Common match. The format here is 3 men’s pairs at home and 3 away playing Greensomes Stapleford. The total points home and away are added up to find the winning team.
In tough conditions the home team averaged 37½ and won by 11 points. In tougher conditions at Lullingstone the away team fought well but lost by 16 giving the match to Lullingstone by 5 points overall.
A mere half a point swing in each game would have done it so a very well done – and a big thank you – to all who played. Results…
Rickmansworth Friendly
In our annual friendly a team of 12 played the home leg against Rickmansworth in a four ball better ball matchplay format. We took the opportunity to ‘blood’ some new members to team golf and everyone rose to the occasion. Richmond won by 4½ to 1½ so have a bit of a lead to take to the away match in August. We shall see if it is enough. Results…

This year we managed to keep up our winning form and scored 3½ matches to their 1½. We look forward to a return match next year at their course. Results…
