GARFIELD GOLF
Geoff Roberts has once again proved that age is no barrier on the golf course by signing off on the best card in Thursday’s Single Par competition at Garfield Golf Club.
Of the 103 players that teed it up, the 84-year-old was one of only 15 players that were able to play to or better their handicap for the day.
Roberts secured the C Grade victory with an impressive round of +3.
Then there were eight players who all finished with rounds of +1, including Greg Noonan who won the B Grade event and Steve Wallace who claimed the top prize in A Grade.
Others on that score were Mario Perrine, Reg Beyer, Chris Kondarios, Tim Pratt, Sandra Argentaro and Ash Graham.
A final countback round of -2 was good enough to get in the prizemoney.
Just a total of 12 birdies were scored for the day on the par threes with the 9th, 11th and 13th giving up three each.
On Monday a field of 56 turned out for a game of stroke where just five players were able to better or play to their mark for the day.
Trevor Thompson, who finished third last Monday week with a great round of 39 points, took out the A Grade event with a round of nett 67.
Bob McKenzie won the B Grade event on a countback from an inform Stuart Kent with a par round of 69.
A final score of 74 was required to feature in the prizemoney and just six birdies were scored on the par threes for the day.
Last Sunday a field of 44 did battle with Jarrod Zonneveld having the best of it winning the B Grade event with his round of 37 points whilst Karli Van Der Horst notched yet another win by coming up trumps for the A Grade event with her round of 34 points.
A final countback round of 30 points was the number to get in the prizemoney.
Darren Stanton, down to his lowest mark of just seven, had three birdies and a pair of nearest the pins for his round.
This Saturday is the June Monthly Medal.
