Congratulations to Ian Bullied winner of the 2018 IGC Match Play.
Ian and Ged Boydell where all square after the 17th. It was on the 18th, the only hole where Ged didn’t have a stroke, where Ian grabbed the opportunity to win the match.

FORMAT	Individual knockout.
PLAY	– On any recognised 18 hole course; – Play at any time, anywhere, during the official time limits as given below, and in line with the official entry / results table; – May be played during an IGC event, but you may not also participate in the IGC competition that day. – Tees to be agreed or determined by the winner of a toss of a coin – honour to be decided by the order of the draw. – Time limits for completion of the rounds are as advised in the draw above; the Final must be played on or before the “Closing Cup” – Players not completing their matches within the time limit may be disqualified. – The person with the honour, as determined by the order of the draw, is responsible for ensuring that their match is scheduled according to the rules. – If a date cannot be agreed upon, the Captain & Vice Captains  will then decide the outcome of the match by a toss of a coin.
HANDICAPS – strokes received.	The lower handicap players plays off scratch. The higher handicap player receives 100% of the handicap difference based upon the playing handicap of the chosen course and tee. For example: A has a playing handicap of 10, B has a playing handicap of 27; B receives (27 – 10) x 100% = 17 strokes.
CONCEDING? putt, hole or match	Yes! At any time. A concession cannot be declined or subsequently withdrawn.
WHO WINS:
a match?	– The player who has more holes in advance of the number of remaining holes to play. For example: 3 up, with 2 to play. – The player who is present on the tee in the event of a “no show”.
a halved match?	– The winner of a sudden-death play-off directly following the first 18 holes, starting at a convenient hole agreed by both players, and with the same strokes applicable at the same holes as during the preceding 18 holes.
