Seniors May Medal
Tough conditions today at the racecourse for the May Seniors Medal competitions with a strong breeze blowing and some squally showers to add to the excitement!! The scoring reflected just how tricky it was. There were separate medal competitions for both men and ladies today.
In the men's medal, John Butcher was the victor with a nett 76 and the lowest gross of the day (89). Runner-up was John Clark on 77 followed by Chris Piper who just pipped Harry Jackson on count-back after both scored 78.
Full result - click here.
[A big thank-you to John Day who was earlier reported to have won the medal. He realised when he got home that he had recorded and signed for an incorrect (lower) score on one of the holes and had the courage and integrity to report this and request a DQ]
The ladies medal was won by Sam Whiting also with a nett 75 followed by Jan Hinks with a nett 81.

Just a single 2 recorded today by ladies winner Sam Whiting at the 17th hole.

Longest Day Golf Challenge
On Monday 9th June 2014, Chris Moore and John Butcher will be playing four consecutive rounds of golf on the same day at Newbury Racecourse.
You might say ... why on earth would they do that?!?!
Well, the answer is to raise as much money as possible for charity - more specifically for Macmillan Cancer Support, which is a charity very dear to us at Newbury.
How can you help?
The best way, is to donate some money to this worthwhile cause. You can either donate on-line by visiting Chris & John's JustGiving page on the web by clicking here. Alternatively you can hand your donation directly to Chris or John at the Golf Club.
Please donate as much as you can - all donations will be gratefully received and the full amount will go direct to Macmillan.
THANK-YOU

May Medal
Fourteen players today in the May Medal. Weather conditions were ideal with some nice warm sunshine and a gentle breeze blowing. The problem is ... the recent warm weather coupled with the rain has made the rough really tough!!! You don't need to wander far off the fairway to be in trouble ... if you can find the ball!! I noticed a lot of provisional balls being played today!!!
Today's winner with a nett score of 71 was Paul Hickey (who must have managed to stay on the short stuff most of the time!!). The runners-up spot was decided on count back with Dave Warwick just ahead of Roy Whiting after both returned nett 74.

Dave Warwick scooped the two's pool today with an excellent 2 at the long par 3 8th hole.
The Owen Millennium Trophy and Summer Medal Aggregate competitions have now reached the third month. Only those who have played all 3 medals so far are shown on the latest standings below.

Seniors vs Bradfield
The Seniors welcomed the players from Bradfield to the racecourse today for a friendly match. Twelve players from each team played in six four-ball matches with the Racecourse narrowly winning by 3 1/2 to 2 1/2. All the players enjoyed an excellent two-course meal in the Nuffield Centre after the match.
The big question is ... Did he fall, did he dive, or was he pushed?
There is always an element of risk partnering Chris Moore as Les Eden found out today after an unscheduled visit to one of our carefully manicured, but very deep ditches. Luckily, after some excellent first aid administered by Libby, Les is OK.
