Saturday February 4th – 2023 Summer Cup, Rd 1B – Par
After almost 20mm of rain over Thurs, Fri and Sat morning and with drizzle falling things looked little bleak at 12.00pm as players filed out of the rooms to the tees for the RGC Summer Cup Par round. The weather soon brightened with sun shining through and the wind coming in gusts now and then. The fairways remained in good nick but a number of the greens and surrounds had some casual water. It was tricky approaching all greens as a shot just a metre short often went no further. The Summer Cup is in memory of those who have gone before us and the club has lost some remarkable members over the past few years; it was good to chat about some of these individuals and remember both their golfing exploits and what they gave to the club and community. On a warm afternoon the results were;
1st; Rob Rea (19) +1
2nd; Scott Williams (17) Square
3rd; Pat Chisholm (12) -1 C/B Mitch Atlas (8), Luke Lyons (14), Clive Mensforth (35)
NTPs; 1st – Mal Mottram, 15th – Scott Williams
