He was the winner by a distance as they say in racing parlance from a chasing pack all on 40 pts who filled the minor places, Padraigh Moloney, Denis Tuohy, Jody Boyle and Jerry Keegan.Scoring over the two days was good in the wild conditions with CSS 71 for both days and 26 players equaled or broke SS.

Results

This week we held the 3 T’s qualifier which was very well supported, with Sean Lee emerging as the winner with 40 pts, which was an excellent score having blanked holes 1 & 9 but he compensated with birdies on 6 & 14. He was followed home by Martin Bohan with 39 who must regret his blank on the 10 and Michael Purcell with 38 who had a blank on the 1st.

 

This Sunday 18 Hole Stableford.Players in the 4 ball matchplay are reminded to complete outstanding matches a.s.a.p. failure will result in forfiture.
