DEEP CREEK GOLF
Golfers could not have asked for better weather conditions at Deep Creek Golf Club on Saturday with beautiful sunshine basking the fairways of Pakenham.
The great weather also brought out some great scoring with Grant Wilson (13) kicking off the summer months in impressive style by scoring 42 points to win A Grade by three shots from Dean Jones (9).
The B Grade competition was a much tighter affair with 11 golfers finishing within three shots of each other at the top of the leaderboard.
John Curtin (18) and Graham Brennan (27) did the best of the scoring, carding 36 points with Curtin winning on a countback.
Other players to have decent rounds included Brian Webster 35, Murray O’Dwyer, Mick Boyd and Nick Gray 34, and Brett Nowlan, Royce Thompson, Roger Parker, Mark Hatton and Leigh Cullen all with 33 points.
Nearest the pin on the 16th went to Anthony Kemsley (4m).
Rex Ryan (21) got the golfing week off to a flying start with a great round of 40 points good enough to win Monday’s stableford competition.
