In beautiful spring-like weather, the John Ives Memorial Cup was played today. This is a fourball event which was played as strokeplay for the first time this year. Although the greens were less than ideal with the annual hollow tining and dressing in progress at the moment, this did not detract from the success of the event.
The runaway winners today, who obviously weren't affect by any of the conditions, were Club Captain John Butcher and Sian Soanes who carded a brilliant better-ball score of nett 61. Runners-up with nett 67 were Mark France and Shey Walder who just beat John Graham and Ian Folwell on count-back.

Should not have been played when the greens were in such a poor condition as a result of the recent uncompleted work.
ReplyDeleteI disagree with anonymous. Yes the greens were in the process of having their annual maintenance carried out, but the scores speak for themselves. Excellent scores posted by many of the teams on the day. Sounds like a case of sour grapes! Shame, when it was such a great day.
