Ladies Golf – Wednesday February 26th

A clear, calm and sunny Wednesday lulled 14 unsuspecting lady golfers into a false sense of optimism this week. The wild and woolly conditions turned out to be very challenging for many and the coveted pen was very hotly contested. Ange Giouzellis was the lucky winner, but there were quite a few who thought they would claim it for sure.

Lorraine Bray played a lovely round to claim victory this week with 36 points. Runner up was Carol Dear (32 pts) proving that a little lay off can do your golf no harm. Joyce Boyd and Mandy Ackland were in the ball pool with 31 points.

Nearest The Pin prizes were won by Joyce Boyd who played a lovely shot on 9 to claim a coffee from Chino’s and UK visitor Laura Thomas who snagged June’s ball on the 3rd.

See you all next Wednesday – 8.30 for 9am hit off.
