Wendy Seymour Texas Scramble

The re-scheduled 2010 Wendy Seymour Texas Scramble was finally played today. This used to be the Winter Texas Scramble, but was renamed in honour of Wendy Seymour.
Wendy, who sadly passed away last year after a long and brave fight against cancer was a very popular and active member at the Club and is sadly missed by us all. Husband Paul was there today to help present the prizes and son Dan (now a qualified professional) who has been at the Club for 10 years since he was a very promising youngster also played in the event.

A great turn-out of twenty-two teams of three took to the course to play for the prizes. With a strong south westerly blowing (unusual at Newbury!?!), scoring conditions were not easy, but that did not prevent some great scores being returned. The eventual winners were Neil Johnson, James Mitchell and Alan Mitchell (nett 57.8). Runners-up were Sean Sargeant, Jamie Prater and Janice Paulin (nett 59.2) and in third place Daniel Seymour, Charlie Butler and Lloyd Childs (nett 59.4). Special mention to Dan's team who carded a fantastic gross 61 (10 under par).

The presentation of the prizes was followed by a raffle which raised over £250 for the Rarer Cancers Foundation. A huge thank-you to all who attended and participated in this special event.
