Seniors Medals Series - May Medal results
Gents Seniors began their 2018 competition season in warm sunshine on Monday 7th May. There was an excellent turnout across the two formats of the competition. Twenty-six Seniors returned cards in the 18 hole competition with eight scoring in the 9 hole event. The two winners were Eddie Berridge [18 holes], benefiting from his recent two months or more in the Australian sun and Stewart Paterson [9 holes].
Eddie led the field by 1 shot with his net 67 and Stewart scored 18 points in the 9 hole Stableford. In the strokeplay competition, Allan Swanston just pipped Duncan Shiell to second place on the strength of a better inward half. Both shot net 68s. Bill Henderson took second place in the 9 hole to repeat the 1st / 2nd places in the final 9 hole competition of 2017. Bill scored 15 points, one ahead of Bob Luthwaite
Full results of each competition are shown below.
The June Medal is scheduled for Monday 4th June. Entries will open soon. Let's hope the weather is as good in June as it was this month.
There weer a few golfers who were unable to enter their scores on Monday. This was due to the fact that the annual handicap review removed the competition status from the handicaps of all players who did not submit the required three cards to maintain their handicaps from 2017 to 2018. I have e-mailed all the players affected and explained the procedure for regaining a handicap.
