The Captains Charity Stroke play had a great turnout and it was Stewart Campbell who won with an impressive 61, second was Russell Lees with 65 the ever present Neil Ferguson with 65 also.
The June Medal was a close affair with Ben Bryant winning with a 62 and the next three players sharing the same score however after the count back it was Alasdair Simpson second and Russell Lees third.
A fantastic evening was had on Monday with 7 teams battling it out during the Centenary Scramble. The conditions were perfect and the course in such good condition there was bound to be some good scoring. We would love to say it was a close affair but the winning team of Dan Wilkinson, Brian Emery, Graham McGillivary and Andrew McLaughlin smashed it out the park with a winning round of 49 that included 8 birdies and 9 pars. Fantastic result gents and well done. Second on the night with 53 were Harry Black, Robin McDougall and Billy McLaughlin. Well don’t to all who turned out for a great evening. Thanks to the Andy for all the organising and scoring and to the greens staff for having the course in such great condition.
Finally our first open of the year, The Greenkeepers Open, was played with a great turnout. Some amazing golf was played and in the men’s competition it was Iain McKie who lifted the trophy with an incredible 59, second was Graham McGillivary with a superb 61 and third was Murray Wilson with a 64. In the ladies comp it was Shonna Derrett who took the crown with 35, second was Lorraine Daw with 29 and third was Margaret Lauder with 27. Thanks to our friends from Blairmore and Strone Golf Club who sent a few of their finest golfers to play. More competitions are coming up including the Club Championship so please check Masterscoreboard for dates. Thanks again to Greenkeepers, the helpers on each of the days and everyone who has turned out over the last couple of weeks.
