Men

A hot afternoon tempered by a breeze, very strong at times, welcomed members to the final Monthly Medals for the year.
In A Division Phil Luckett on 69 nett edged out the unlucky Clinton Dowling on 70. Wayne Faulkner earned his first medal with 67 nett from Larry Pershouse on 68, with rundowns to Roger Draper on 69, Ken Albion and Harry Zawacki both on 70 nett.

Craig Reynolds (4.8m) won the A Division pinshot on 1&10; Harry Zawacki (1.5m) the B Division approach there; Kev Savage (3.14m) the A Division pinshot on 4&13; Bob Champney (3.27m) the B Division pinshot on the same hole.

This Saturday we hold our annual Sponsors’ Appreciation Day and hope that as many sponsors are represented as possible in the Three Person Ambrose event. All members not representing a sponsor are also welcome to play in a simultaneous club Ambrose event.
