Platinum Jubilee
Most of the 50+ competitors found conditions difficult with concentration and looking for balls the main factor. Focussed captain Jon Cooper rose to the challenge and 70 was enough to secure the Platinum Jubilee with Tony Pickard a commendable second one shot away. Two ladies secured 3rd and 4th positions – Lia Donath and Sheena Harrington. Results…
Jon was the only Cat 1-3 man to score 2 within SSS and the CSS was elevated to 73. Men’s handicap list…
With no Category 1-4 lady coming within 2 shots of SSS 71 it is a Reduction Only round and with no Category 5 lady beating CSS 74 there are no handicap changes arising at all.

After a gruelling 5 hour round on Dukes, Richmond Park and Thorney Park were tied 2½ – 2½ with both Maureen Slade and Veronica Mitchell confidently and competently winning their matches and Cheryl Woodhouse and Jini Beacham missing out on theirs.

Thanks to all the ladies who played!

Qualifier for Men’s Singles Matchplay
Pace of play and difficulty in finding balls made scoring conditions tough, despite glorious warm sunny conditions. Most players have at least one ‘mare of a score on a hole but Lee Eden and David Keen persevered to take the two top spots with 71s closely followed a shot behind by John Ahad and the five players with 73s.
