The Sandex 2026

Medal 10 – Results 22nd August!

Gents,

The weekends Sandex results are in and now verified. 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️🎯💰💸

Taking the 500 points on offer for Medal 10 this week is Charlie Gillen with a fantastic score of 66 (74). 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️ Charlie’s round included 10 pars along with birdies at the tough 7th & 16th holes as he went out in 39 & returned in just 35 blows! After jumping 28 places, Charlie now positions himself just outside our top 8 in 13th overall! Superb Golf, mate! 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️

We have a 3-way tie for 2nd place this week securing 208.3 Sandex points each for their efforts.👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️

Scott Orr 67 (75). Scott’s round included 11 pars along with a birdie at the par 5 16th as he went out in 40 & came home in just 35 shots! Scott now moves up 12 positions to 28th overall! Great Golf, mate! 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️

Gary “Gizzy” Somerville 67(74). Gizzy’s round consisted of 14 pars and no birdies as he went out 37 & returned also in 37 shots. Bogeys at the last 2 holes may have cost him the top spot this week. 👀😬However, Gizzy now moves into the top 9 in that precarious 9th position after moving up from 16th place! Stunning golf, mate! 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️

Tam” Tubbs” Martin 67 (67). Tam’s round included 11 pars along with 5 birdies at the 4th, 5th, 11th, 12th & 17th (magic 2 💰) holes as he went out in 35 & raced home in just 32 shots! Tam is starting to hit form at the right time and now moves up 6 places, to 17th overall! Outstanding golf mate! 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️

In 5th place we have Scott Montgomery 68(72). Scott’s round consisted of 14 pars complemented with a nice birdie at the par 5, 16th hole as he went out in 39 & returned in just 33 blows! Scott has moved up to 25th overall! Brilliant Golf, mate! 👍👏⛳️🏌️‍♂️

Gents, it’s now the main business end of the season with just one medal remaining before we can confirm our nine Sandex finalists for 2026! It is officially, our tightest season ever, as anyone except the bottom five can still qualify for our final! 👀😬👌⛳️🏌️‍♂️And just to make our final qualifier of the season a little more interesting. It is a Sandex “major” with an incentive of 750 points to the outright winner! ⛳️🏌️‍♂️🎯💰💸

Looking at the current top nine, I would say, Franny, Kevin & Scotty are secure, well-done lads! 👌🏌️‍♂️⛳️💸💰🤩However, the other six places are most definitely up for grabs, as the spread from 4th place to 18th is just 250 points! 👀😬🫣🏌️‍♂️⛳️Plus, it’s your best 8 scores that count from our Sandex 13 medals, bringing added drama! This year we also have an additional incentive for the top nine as bonus Stableford points will be awarded to the top five depending on finishing positions with the Sandex regular season winner awarded 5 points & 2nd place 4 points on so on! 👀🎯💸 It’s going to be a crazy final day lol 👀🤩😂But, we will have to wait until the 5th of September before this regular season madness is concluded. 👀🫣😬😂⛳️🏌️‍♂️That gives us an extra week of preparation time in between the Sandyhill’s GC Member/guest this weekend! Sandyhills Golf Club

Gents enjoy the rest of your week, see you all on the 5th of September for the tightest Sandex season decider ever!👀🏌⛳️🏆

All the best the Sandex committee.

So, with just 3 rounds remaining in our 2026 Sandex season the top of the leaderboard looks pretty much dialled in! Our runaway Sandex leader Kevin McKenzie decided to have an away day with 2 rounds at the Calderbraes GC Club Championships over the weekend! 👀🏌️‍♂️⛳️👌And what has happened to early season leader Scott Kelly who has either fell off a cliff or is protecting his H/C and hopes he can still qualify from his current 7th position! 👀😬👍🏌️‍♂️⛳️There is still plenty of time to break into that final 9 with 1 major still to come!👌🏌️‍♂️⛳️🎯💸

Gents,

Enjoy the rest of your week and we will do it all again on Sunday the 16th for Medal No:9! Sandyhills Golf Club

Unlucky mate ..Scott moves up to 47th overall! Great effort! 👏🏌️‍♂️⛳️

So! The top 9 is looking quite settled as no one from outside managed to break into our final 9!
