CARDINIA BEACONHILLS GOLF
THE annual ‘Lefties versus Righties’ stableford event was played on Saturday at Cardinia Beaconhills with two teams of 11 players competing for the title. It seems the righties had the upper hand this year winning with 412 points to the lefties’ 396 points.
In Saturday’s Stableford event 144 players competed and it was Joe Marsiglio (6) who took out the A-Grade competition with 41 points. Doug Rowe (15) won the B Grade with 40 points on a count-back and Robyn Lang (32) returned the best score in the C Grade with 43 stableford points.
Congratulations to Denise Toon (33) who won the Dawn Shaw Matchplay on Saturday after defeating Robyn Lang (32) two-up.
Heather Hamilton and Graham Kelly weren’t deterred by the hot and humid conditions on Sunday, returning the best score in the mixed MF Ahern Canadian Foursomes of 68.75 from runners-up Jann and Eric Wilson with 70.625.
Troy McDermott and Nathan Hamilton won Sunday’s four-ball aggregate stableford competition with 79 points.
It was only August last year when Gary Jollands was celebrating his hole-in-one on the sixth, so it was a feeling of ‘déjà vu’ when he did it again on Sunday on exactly the same hole!
