Two important events for our women golfers have been contested over the past week.
Last Thursday it was the women’s foursomes championships, won by Vicki Brunker and Prue Lloyd. Handicap winners were Prue Chalmers and Linda Brant.
On Sunday visitors travelled from Finley, Trentham, Barham and Rich River to join local teams competing in the first round of the Women’s Scramble.
The winning Deniliquin team comprised Jen Swainger, Marg Rothwell, Ali Ferguson and Sarah Aitken, with Finley visitors taking the unlucky runners-up on countback and a Trentham team in third place.
Congratulations to our winning four, who will now move to the next round of The Scramble.
Saturday was fourball best ball and winners were Colin Thompson and Kevin Reeves who scored 43 points, scoring by a point to runners-up John Penna and Chris Thomson.
In Wednesday’s stableford event the A-grade winner was Ross Pogonoski on 36 points from runner-up Graeme Willoughby 35, and B-grade Warren Bull 39, from runner-up Russell Begg 38.
Coming up, tomorrow we have a stroke event and the men’s monthly medal, then the Deniliquin Men’s Open and medley stroke on Sunday.
On Tuesday the 9-hole competition will be stableford, the usual stableford will be played on Wednesday, with the women’s fourball best ball qualifier on Thursday.
Next Saturday is stableford and the coveted Borella Cup.
