GC Singles in divisions, 20th May 2022
26 players from the South East of England braved the elements of a rain soaked Friday morning to compete in this very popular 1 day series.
The tournament was split into 3 sections:
A low handicap block of 8 players handicaps ranging form -2 to +1.
A mid handicap block of 8 players with handicaps ranging from 2 to 5.
A higher handicap group with handicaps ranging from 6 - 9. This last group consisted of 10 players placed in 2 cross blocks of 5 with the winners and second placed individuals in each block playing a final for 1- 4th places.
The low handicap block was won by Richard Brooks (-1) with 6 wins with Jane Humphreys (0) (SCCC) and Brian Aikens (1) (Rottingdean) taking second and third places.
The mid handicap groups was won by Louise Taylor (3) (Merton) with 6 wins with Husband Gavin Taylor(4) taking second place with 5 wins.
The higher handicap group was played cross blocks to avoid a bye and proved to be a hard fought contest.
It was eventually won by Linda Gavigan (7) who beat Rachel Pointon (9) in the final with Vincent L’Estrange (7) taking 3rd place from Simon Fenn-Tye (6). All 4 players representing SCCC.
After a very wet start the weather improved and by mid afternoon the players were enjoying warm sunny weather.
Our thanks must go Angela Avis and Linda Davies who provided a first class ploughman’s and dessert.
