MENS GOLF FOR THE W/E 11TH FEB 2024

Finally a week that we can call summer, with great weather and great golfing conditions. There were 3 competitions this week with 2 par rounds and the usual stableford competition on Thursday.

On Tuesday 23 members played in a par round with Taki Murakami having a great round finishing with a great score of +7. Paul Morris finished second with a score of +4 and in third place was peter Sergeant on +1.

Thursday’s stableford competition had a great field of 67. Daylight saving allows some play later in the day after they have finished with their work commitments. There were once again some great scores with the top 12 in the field either equalling or bettering their handicaps.
