STRANDHILL

BUSY WEEKEND Between Friday and Sunday last there was some great golf played on the Strandhill course. In last Friday’s mixed competition, winner Tristan Probst, playing off two, posted a terrific score of 42 points (a three under tally that included five birdies). Although he bogied the 16th and

18th, he had already done the hard work.

Philip Moriarty was the player in form the following day, Saturday. He started with an eagle and when he birdied the other par five – the fifth hole – he was on his way to victory with a fine score of 39 points. In Sunday’s superb sunshine it was Philip Little who emerged as the competition winner – the highlight of his consistent display was a birdie on the second hole.
