Despite the rain over the last couple of days the course was in fantastic condition but unfortunately the weather didn’t match the course condition. It is the Winter Cup so we should expect some testing conditions but it was extremely difficult, especially later in the day. Well done to the 117 brave souls who ventured out on to the course, a huge well done to the 3 players who broke par and a massive well done to Mark Bevis who held on to win.

Congratulations to Mark Bevis (69) (86-17), Ryan Henderson (69) (87-18) and Shaun Conway (70) (86-16) for breaking par on a tough day when 50 players failed to submit a score. It was a very tight finish between the 3 of them. Although all 3 had 5 net birdies each, Mark took the honours from Ryan thanks to a better last 6 holes. Both Mark and Ryan were back in net 35’s but Mark’s last 6 of 21 was 1 better than Ryan’s 22. The 17th proved crucial with Mark scoring a 4 compared to Ryan’s 5 and Shaun’s 6.

Mark wins £55.30 sweep money, Ryan gets £33.30 and Shaun pockets £22.20.
There were 9 winners of the 2’s sweep. James Lawson, Alan Lambert Thomson, Aaron Smith, Archer Wilson, Greg Dymock, Steven Love, Dave Newlands, Steven Starritt and David Black all winning £9.87.
