Friday’s Single Stableford field was smaller than usual due to the large number of ladies who had played in the Jacaranda Open Day – 31 players. With only one grade, the best performer was Terri Collingburn who had an excellent score of 40pts. Daphne Hinshaw was r/up with a great score of 39pts, and 2nd r/up was Judy Palich with 38pts c/b.
