Golf - Thursday 12th August 2010 - 2nd Round of the Ladies Championships

We welcomed a rain free day today for the second round of the Ladies 2010 Championships. We did have some wild winds at times and it was a very cool start to the day, however rain free conditions went down very well with our players today even though we had some very wet sticky spots on the fairways. Hopefully this wind will hold for a few days to help dry out those wet places and our course will be back to top condition.

My playing partners today were Lesley Gregory & Margaret Pratt & they were great company. We struggled at times in some of the wet patches but overall we had a lovely day.

The Event of the day was the second round of the 2010 Club Championships - Daily Single Stroke and we had 50 starters.
