May Medal

The May Medal was played today in appalling conditions (cold, wind and rain) with thirty-seven players (29 men and 8 ladies) competing for the medals. However, only 18 brave souls managed to finish their round. Both men and ladies medal competitions were calculated as "reductions only", so no increases in handicaps will occur.

Special congratulations to Kim who smashed the course record for the number of shots taken to complete the par-3 14th hole. I believe the previous record was 16, but today Kim surpassed that with a magnificent 21 shots. Well done Kim !!!
