Forbes and Wilson win



The V.V.Vs:

The winners among our Monday Ladies players appear to be rotating their wins from week to week.

This week, a fine 22 point result, with six three-point holes no less, assured Merilyn Macdonald of the win and the top voucher.

The commissioner clearly has bragging rights again.

Vicki Hottes also claims bragging rights this week as her 17 point total earns her the runner up prize and her best result for some weeks.

Of course, no NTP winners occurred, which is no surprise as the two back nine par threes have even been too tough for the Wednesday and Saturday fields recently.

Wednesday 18 June, Stableford Two Person B.B:

Playing in pairs, and combining to score well on every hole is the secret in this event.

The pair who combined well for all of their round were Ron Wilson and Glenn Forbes, who returned a stunning 49 points.

To illustrate how emphatic that result was, we just need to compare that with the runner up score of 45 points.

This was achieved by grandfather/grandson combination, Andrew McMath and Angus Hall, and that total would have won most weeks in an event like that.

Well done to both pairs for their outstanding results.

The NTP winners on this day were Dale Horrobin (3rd), Paul Kennedy (5th), Andy Lockey (9th) and to Glenn Forbes (15th).

Saturday 21 June, Stableford and Presidents/Captains day:

This starts with president Nursey and captain Whitehead choosing their teams, one pick at a time, from the list of those members playing.

An average Stableford score is calculated and the team with the highest average clearly allows the winning team leader to have bragging rights for the next 12 months.

Unfortunately I do not have the final result, but I’m led to believe that the captain may have conquered the president and her team.

What can be reported is that the top individual scorer was Brendan Creedy, posting a fine 41 point result.

Michael Pinkster returned a pleasing 40 points, followed by Ashley Hall, who continued his recent form run with 39 impressive points.

No NTP results were posted in the results.
