Captain’s Trophy, 31 May 2024

Despite a cool and drizzly start to the day’s play, 15 members teed off for the Captain’s Trophy on 31 May on the Tuart Course.  The clear winner on the day was Ric Haddleton who played off a handicap of 20, scored gross 89 to achieve a net 69 with birdies on 7 and 18 and pars on holes 11 and 12, giving him a net back-9 score of 32, the best nine score of the day.  Garth Irvine came second with a gross score of 83 for a net 70.  Garth scored a birdie on the 17th and parred 6 other holes.  Third place went to Steve Thomas who had the best gross score of the day with 80 for a net 72, birdying hole 7 and parring 6 other holes.  Captain Tom McClain provided a host of novelties as detailed in the post of the day’s results, each winning a prize of 4 golf balls whilst first, second and third place-getters were awarded stubbies of Corona beer.  Many thanks for the generous prizes, Tom.
