Nagambie Golf Club’s lush greens boost scores across board

Greg Whiteman won the social club trophy aggregate event that runs across the winter, hanging on with enough points in the first four rounds after collecting none in the final day’s play.

Des Phelan, shooting possibly his best score ever, was the winning scorer for the day’s competition, with 43 points.

The runner-up saw Glen Evans return, using his generous handicap to finish with 40 stableford points.

Gary Bow took third place, scoring 39 points. This score would have won a few weeks ago, but with the ground firming up, more of the playing group is now in contention.

The nearest-the-pins were challenging with a strong north-easterly wind blowing.

Tim Baldwin battled the crosswind to reach the 13th, and Lindsay Hall used the tailwind to perfection on the 16th.

Next week’s golf is the gold medal play-off and a stroke event.

On office duty is D. Brown, and in the bar, J. Lodding.
