NICO WYND MEN’S GOLF CLUB SEES TEN TIME CHAMPION DEFEATED
After ten Club Championships over the last fourteen years, perennial winner Jamie Mills was defeated by Andrew Paul, at the end of an intense competition over two successive days on August 19 and 20 at the Nico Wynd Golf Course in South Surrey. Paul, who last took the crown in 2007, edged Mills by an impressive margin of seven strokes.
On the net side (after handicap), Bob Ferguson came from trailing in second place on day 1, to capture his first Net Club Championship. Ferguson defeated Doug McPhee who had posted outstanding first day results to lead both the net and gross leaderboards.
The trophy presentation was made by Saturday Men’s Club Captain, Graham Roberts, who had claimed the Club Championship himself in 2008.
This concludes the 2023 Club Championships with the Tuesday Seniors group crowning their champions in the previous week. The club’s summer season will continue through to the end of October prior to transitioning to the winter and spring schedule.
Applications for membership in this long running golf club are available through their website at: nwmgc.ca or by asking for information at the pro-shop. Players of all handicaps over the age of 19 are welcome to apply.
