When a terrific downpour of rain hit the course on Saturday, most players retreated to the safety of the club house.
Phil Dignan soldiered on. He may have been soaked to the bone but his reward was to win A grade with 39.
Ron Noncentini had the benefit of a later start but his 41 was still an impressive effort and saw him the B grade winner.
Rhys Fairlie was even more impressive. His 43 took out C grade and was the best score for the week.
Down the line David Low 40, Paul Massey 40, Jim Bransgrove 39, Con Norris 38, John Wolswinkel 38, Bob Porter 37, Frank Clebney 36, Fred Gajdobranski 36, Darryl Bryce 36.

On Wednesday Tom Carroll put aside the worries of presidency and just enjoyed his golf. Playing of the black markers was quite a challenge but his 37 was good enough to take out A grade.

DTL: Con Norris 39, John Denholm 39, John Fusinato 38, Alan Bright 38, Brian Maunder 36, Richie Thomas 36, Graham Moon 36, Jason Stirzaker 36.
