We had a field of 50 who played in last Wednesday’s Single Stableford at Yamba.
Conditions couldn’t have been better with a cool early morning followed by a warm, sunny day. Yamba perfection! Life is tough during winter in Yamba!
We welcomed back resident globetrotter; Gillian Holst and it was also wonderful to see Rae Blood playing in the Nine Hole competition after approximately two years away.

With many ladies playing in Grafton’s Tournament, Friday’s Single Stableford event had a field of 36 players. Last Wednesday, Lisa Marsh was lamenting that she felt her game needed to progress to the next level and she was at a loss as to how to do it. Friday’s winning result of 44pts suggests she found the key. Fantastic Lisa! Close behind was Jane Madden (40pts) and Suzie Prosser (39pts). Three fabulous scores for three relatively new players. Well done to everyone!
Balls – to 35pts.
