HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY as reported to me: Carolyn Buttsworth had 6 x 3 pointers, 2/4 on the 5th and won nearest the pin; Kay Baillie had 5x 3 pointers and played steady.....and cleverly dropped down to B Grade just before the Championships; Garry Baillie’s Tee shot off the 7th landed on the 4th tee but a clear shot got him back onto the correct fairway; Eddie Rogers hit a very good shot behind the hedge on the 4th; Lorraine Bignall dropped in a 7 metre putt on the 6th and had 12 straight drives; Kevin O’Brien chipped over the bunker on the 9th and missed the cup by two inches; I had a hit and miss game and did not even finish with the same ball I started with. We were last to finish today so I did not have time to get around all the tables to gather highlights. Sorry to anyone I missed that may have had some bragging rights.
