Yes the golf season officially kicks off with the first major of the year and as always will no doubt be a very exciting Sunday evening, with plenty of drama, I hope I stay awake that long!!
A busy week at the club with competitions and club matches, I also had my first run out in The Kent PGA Spring Classic Pro Am at Royal Cinque Ports with Club Captain Geoff Speck, Paul Connell and James Thompson. As a team we were -8 and I shot 72, both scores finishing 6th, so not bad for the first event of the year.
On the pro-am theme, if anyone is interested in playing in any pro am events this year on The PGA in England South calendar then please let me know and we can enter some tournaments.
The Goodhart Cup
1st - P Littlewood - 79 14 65
2nd - N Higgins - 81 15 66
3rd - L Clarke - 80 13 67
Good scores returned for this event, considering a sunny but blustery day, especially for the winner, Phillip Littlewood, who not only shot a nett 65 but also went OOB on 17th and in the water at the last! A special mention to John Williams who produced a fine battling display and eventually realised enough was enough and carded a No Return............after 2 holes!!
April Mid Week Stroke
1st - R Chitty - 79 13 66
2nd - M Jordan - 68 1 67
3rd - A Brown - 83 16 67
