Myself and Craig Manson had the pleasure of representing Clevedon Golf Club in the regional final of the Lombard Trophy at Burnham & Berrow Golf Club. Craig was the leading qualifier in the April medal held at Clevedon earlier in the year.
We teed off first in the event that saw sixty two pairs competing for the chance of representing their respective clubs in the grand final at Gleneagles. Thanks to some particularly brilliant play by Craig I'm pleased to say that we won the event and thus will be representing Clevedon once again in the grand final.
June Medal & Grandpa Quaich
On an exceptionally windy day Joe Shellard produced the lowest nett score with an impressive 68, close behind were three players on 69 (Welsh Mackendrick, David Wilmot and Brian Strickland). Well played to every one who took part.
Club Midweek Stableford
Fifty three competitors took place in the midweek stableford on Tuesday. Some very good, low scores were achieved. Notably the winning one from Sarah Martin who amassed forty points to pip Tom Williams by one point. Again well played to all entrants.
Ladies Open
Nearly seventy ladies competed in this year's Ladies Open which was played on Wednesday. Top spot went to the team comprised of Sally Anderson, Nicky Edwards and Sarah Martin (Sarah's second win in as many days!) with 76 points. Second spot went to the team from The Bristol Golf Club with 75 points. It was a great day that went very smoothly from start to finish, well done to all who took part and also well done to all the volunteers that help contribute to a successful day.
Senior Results
On a warm but blustery Monday our Senior's Scratch team reached the semi-finals of the Somerset Knock Out Championship with a 3-2 win over The Mendip at Saltford. The next day in much colder conditions, the Seniors continued their fine form with a friendly win away at Lansdown. Thursday saw the running of the Senior's Open in the warmest conditions of the year so far. Dennis Godley's 39 points was good enough for overall honours, he pipped Bob Phillips on the back nine countback.
