KENTON GOLF BROTHERHOO­D Tuesday October 18

Cool and overcast weather with a light westerly wind saw 36 entrants into the early morning draw to play in nine 4-balls to contest a Stableford Alliance 2-scoresto-count on the par threes and fours and all 4-to-count on the par fives, with a bonus for a “sandy”, a par from a bunker.

The sun shone through as the morning progressed to see Tony Halse, Peter Reed, Matt Chadwick and Brian Shirley sail in on 92 points to claim first place. Neil Loundar, Bob Shaw, Bryan Robinson and Keith Rugg were second on 90 points.

Visitor Dave Law, Phillip van der Byl, Mike Krige and Lindy Krige struggled to post 75 points and ensure no challenger­s for the Hamer & Sukkel.

Ross Grainger birdied the par three 8th; Mike Krige birdied the par three 6th; but Bob Shaw, sensing an opportunit­y with a carryover pool to play for, birdied both the par three 6th and the par three 11th to take the 2-club spoils for his covey.

There were grey skies but a promise of brighter horizons saw 34 entrants playing an Alliance Stableford 2-scores-to-count with a bonus point for everyone in the covey scoring 3 points or better and any “sandys”, a par from a bunker.

Matt Chadwick, Mike Stadler, Fanie Smit and Paul Fryer tied for first place with Richard Farndell, Andy Manson, Keith Rugg and John Abbott on 87 points, both coveys rueing missed opportunit­ies. Berny Loggenberg, Russell Warren and Jimmy van Rensburg struggled to post 69 (64+5) points and recerived the Hamer & Sukkel. Andy Manson, John Crandon and

Pat Halse all birdied the par three

8th and Tony Halse, keeping up his 2-club momentum of late, birdied the par three 6th. Pat and Tony, playing in the same covey, secured the 2-club pool for their team.
