Mel Smart Memorial report

The Mel Smart Memorial was played was played for at Wakefield Golf Club on a pretty Muggy Monday!  The lack of rain showed throughout the course however the greens were watered well and ran true. The course was challenging in places with fairly narrow fairways together with well placed bunkers to challenge everyone.

Once we rounded the straggler (JK) out of the toilet (thinking he had time when he saw a crowd on the tee, however they were the society behind us!!!!) and got him back with his playing partners we played the only medal competition of the season which always brings the cream to the top.

Nearest the pins were played for on the three par’3 and these were taken by Paul ‘Killer’ Kilburn on the 2nd hole and Nigel Owram on both the 7th and the 16th.

Nearest in 2 was on the 12th hole and was taken by Roger Worth.

The very exclusive 2’s club was visited by just 1 player who absolutely loves to try get in every time we play, he’s a disappointed chap indeed when said 2’s club isn’t open at all (another society who don’t always play for it) but this time it was and he stormed in. Well done Killer, hope you enjoyed your visit!!!

And so onto the top 3… In third place with a net 70 on a count back was Lee Worth. In second place, a guy with home course advantage was Roger Worth with a very decent score of 69. The winner with great score of 68, 5 under par was Luke Worrilow. Well played Luke, a fine performance.

All the scores and hadicaps have been updated on the relevant page.

Well done all who won something and thanks as always to everyone who turn up to support the society.
