Kerang

AT the ladies event on Wednesday, 15 golfers took part.

The winner was Rhonda Willoughby, 97-28=69. Runner-up was Deanne Free, 98-29=69.

Ball pool went to J. Youl and M. Learmonth. Chino’s nearest to pin went to M. Learmonth. In the putting competition, Jean and Michelle both had 29.

There were 29 entrants in Thursday’s R&R Stableford event and it was a close one, with a three-way countback to decide the winner. It was Doug Ellwood with 37 points from Allan Free and Andrew Spitty on 37.

A bit sad for Spitty who equalled his course record and came third.

NTP went to Spitty 3 and 5, R. Gill 9th, 13th T. Turvey and 16th C. Waterson.

A strong field contested Saturday’s Greenwood Mugge Stableford event and Deaniee Henderson won the ladies goblet with 34 on a countback from Olive Spitty 34 points.

Scott Harry took out the men’s section with 42 points, W. O’Neill 39, P. Jones 38, C. Waterson, C. Manners, G. McNeil and R. Nesbit all on 35, O. Spitty and D. Meehan on 34. NTP 3rd C. Manners, 5th A. Spitty, 9th K. Lane, 13th O. Spitty and 16th C. Gillen.
