Captains Update 29th September

Hello Golfers
The Winter Cup starts on Sunday !!

Firstly congratulations to Lars-Ove Roos who won the Summer Cup last weekend. Very well done, Lars has been leading since the first few rounds and seemingly was cruising to victory but on the final day at Pierpont Adrian O’Sullivan raced up the leaderboard to 2nd with a closing 39 points. 3nd was David Dart. Well done to all the players who completed the necessary qualifying rounds.

The Royal Trophy came to a thrilling conclusion with Andre Husheer sneaking the victory with a closing round of +5 to beat Paul Meersman by only 1 shot. Robert Downey finished 3rd.
There is actually a very nice picture of the 3 regular Royal trophy competitors on the link below

For the Matchplay there are only 4 names left: Barry, Theresa, John and Darius. Barry is in the final already with John and Darius playing the QF on Sunday competing to meet Teresa in the semi final.

We previously advertised the Royal Trophy Final as the 7th October but we have moved this event to the 28th October at L’Empereur as with the relatively recent addition of the Dutch Stay and Play the weekend of the 6th-8th October we had a clash of popular events.

Dutch Stay and Play 6th-8th October
Captain’s Day on 14th October at Royal Waterloo
