A very competitive field of 24 women played the midweek single stroke event off the red markers at the Warwick Golf Club last Wednesday (6/4). The event sponsored by the Warwick Coffee Club who are great supporters of the Warwick Women’s Golf Club.
On Wednesday we had 24 ladies play in the single stroke off the red markers
A countback was required to decide the winner after Marg Adcock and Anna Cox were both back in the club house for a 68 nett score.
Marg Adcock who got the winner’s nod after the countback. The pair finished well ahead of the remainder of the field. Adcock who score a birdie on the 11th also took home the Pro Pin. Mel McLennan and Wendy Rhea also took a share in the pro pin with extremely close shots. Lyn McKillop returned a nett 76 and finished in third place but did not go home empty handed. She won the front nine after yet another countback from Anne Lyons (nett 77).
On Saturday the ladies played the Style Shoes White marker Stableford thanks to the generous sponsorship from Melanie McLennan.
Anna Cox who has been in great form recently and narrowly missed out in the midweek event returned a winning score of 35 points to claim the trophy. Not too far afield was runner up Sam Hinze (32 Points).
Honours on the front nine belonged to Donna Keogh (17). 17 points was also Yvonne Pinington winning score on the back nine. The pro pin on Saturday was shared by Gwen Mills, Joely Singleton, Mel McLennan, Ann Tomkins and Trish Bell. The 13th hole seemed to be lucky on Saturday, as there were 9nine pars and one very classy birdie from Yvonne Pinington at the hole.
