R&A Trophy Roger Limbert and Martyn Duffield joined Francesco Molinari in picking up a trophy from the R&A at the weekend. Martyn did his last minute tee booking on Saturday morning and joined Roger to produce the round of the day in the R&A Trophy. Their nett 61 was only just good enough to pip Steve O’Loughlin and Russell Gunning who had posted what I thought would be an unbeatable 61 having combined for a gross 66. But Roger chipped in on the 16th for a 3 net 2 and they won on a back six count back. Senior Open It’s been a really busy week at the club with 176 people playing in the Senior Open on Monday. Again the sun shone and we received numerous glowing comments from the players on how fantastic the course was playing, and the overall experience being first class. Faldo series We then hosted the re-arranged Faldo Series from Tuesday to Thursday, and a I write this Moortown member James Trant is leading the under 16’s after two rounds of 74 and 73 and is only 5 shots behind the two round overall leader James Wilson. Let’s hope that he can keep it together today. President's Day President’s Day on Saturday, which is a 9am shot gun start, followed by presentation and food. In the event of a tie there will be a shoot-out on the 18th hole and it is hoped that everybody will stay to watch and support the President. The draw for tees can be found here. |
