Mills gets top spot



The V.V.Vs:

Merilyn Macdonald has continued her impressive, and very consistent form, with another win this week.

Her 21 impressive points easily accounted for the rest of the smallish field, with Vicki Hottes grabbing the runner up prize.

Merilyn’s score of 21 points once again included plenty of three pointers, plus two pars on difficult holes. Great job, commissioner..

Wednesday 25 June, Stableford:

Due to a very significant dump of rain, there was no competition on this day, so, no vouchers to be won, or matchplay to occur.

Saturday 28 June, PAR:

Although we had endured a very wet week, even cancelling out our midweek event, the Saturday players competed under friendly skies, with even an appearance by the sun a few times.

Of course, conditions were still heavy underfoot, and carts had to be driven carefully to avoid slip-sliding away.

Add to that hurdle, the fact that the event listed was for PAR, and no outstanding results were expected.

But, Robert Mills defied that expectation.

Rob’s plus six was an outstanding result under those conditions.

It can be best illustrated when I report that young tyro, Manny Humphris, posted a very winnable plus three, but had to be content with the runner up voucher.

By the way, young Manny, genuine congratulations on defeating that wily old Hendy 3-1 in your recent Midweek Matchplay encounter.

After Robert’s and Manny’s plus six and plus three respectively, the next best score were a bunch of plus ones to share the ball rundown.

All that is left to report now are the clever five members who snared an NTP each.

They were: David “Pup” Lever (3rd), Ben “Panda” Lever (5th), Shane “Bomber” Campbell (9th), Brendan “Junior” Creedy (12th) and to Paul “Ossie” Osbourne (15th).
