Mother’s Day was no hindrance to Westlawn golfers

I thought that since Sunday was Mother’s Day we might have had a drop in numbers but no, we still had 38 players turn up to take on the front nine in a single Stableford event and with the great weather and the course in top condition there were going to be some good scores handed in.

The best score of the day was a fine 25 points from Div 2 winner Dave Lynch, finally got the putter working properly. He was followed by another Div 2 player in Peter Chessell with 21 points and then we had four players, Charles Doggett, David Anderson Peter Johnson, and Joe Armstrong all with 20 points and Robert Eichmann and David Tasker both with 19 points. Jason Casserly, Ron Jenkin, Mark Newman, and Shane Bickerton all collected a pro ball with 18 points.

Players are definitely getting to know the course and the handicapper has never worked so hard keeping up with all the changes, personally I think he has got a sadistic streak in him.

For the second week in a row the overall winner from the previous week has finished at the end of the field with Dave Lorenzo failing to break into double figures. I only hope I do not complete the trifecta next week.

Next week we will attack the back nine with a 4BBB Stableford event, the best score of the pair counts, but write down both scores for handicapping purposes.

I would like to thank Jason for sending through the results every week, it makes my job easy indeed.
