Wednesday May 13th – Stroke

After a seven week hiatus some cautious reductions to the Covid19 restrictions have allowed a return to golf.  This news was gladly received by many golfers across the state not least of all by those at Romsey Golf Club.
It was obvious to all who played that a dedicated band of volunteers have not had a holiday and have been busy maintaining and improving the course. The fairways have a beaut cover of grass and, along with the surrounds, have been regularly mown.  The greens are in tip-top condition. The extension to the first green has come along well and is a great improvement.    A big thank you to all who have worked so hard on the course. The whole of  Romsey Park looks wonderful.
The morning rain deterred a number of golfers but a few hardy souls hit off early to participate in a stroke event. Others chose to return in the afternoon to play in the sunshine.  Dean Jones was not deterred by the weather conditions or a lack of practice and had a great round.  On a very challenging morning
the results were;
1st; Dean Jones –  72/5/67
2nd; Steve Wilkins – 100/19/81
3rd; John Freestone – 102/19/83
