After a chilly start, this year's October Fourball was blessed with some warm autumnal sunshine for most of the competition. The benign conditions in this better-ball stroke play competition off 3/4 handicap allowed for some tremendous scores to be returned.
The winners, retaining their title from last year, were John Graham and Sarah Purvis with a superb nett 60. Runners-up were the junior pairing of Max Nicholls and Jack Unsworth who just pipped Jimmy Green and Nigel Huszarik on countback after both carded nett 63's. Fourth place went to John Butcher and Jim Purvis who beat two other teams who all scored nett 65.

Trousers-of-the-day award goes to Mark Richardson for his superb John Daley-esque strides ... fantastic!!!
Pace of play
Unfortunately, the pace of play today was disappointing with no groups managing to break the four-hour barrier!! We don't want a race, but we certainly need to improve on this!!
Order of Merit
The Order of Merit title is still in the balance after today's competition. Andrew Buchanan and Ian Folwell still remain tied at the top on 47 points each. Today's result means Max Nicholls has closed the leader's gap to 6 points closely followed by Maria Tillett 1 further point back. Just two counting events left this year (Bogey Competition and November Greensomes), so still all to play for.
