Richmond Open Report

Apologies for the late report!!

 

A fabulous turn out of 25 players were treated to a scorching of a day with the sun shining high in the sky and the sun cream was well and truly running out fast!

First I’d like to place on record our thanks to the staff at Richmond G.C. for their great hospitality. They do make it a wonderful day all round.

For the second season we played a Medalford competition with every shot counting towards the final scores. An interesting format and one which is proving popular.

There’s 5 par 3’s at Richmond and the nearest pins were won by 5 different players. These were….

Lee Hepworth on 4, Pete Ferris on 7, Rob Russel on 9, Johnny winner on 12 and Mike Pottock on 18.

An amazing 7 players took a share of the 2’s pot and these were… Ian Dyson, Rob Russel, Pete Ferris, Aidy Hope, Lee Hepworth, James Pickersgill & Mike Pottock.

Onto the top 3 of the day…. In third on a count back with a combined zero was Johnny Winner, in second was Lee Hepworth winning the back 9 of the afternoon by 19 points to 16.

The 2025 Richmond Open champion with a great score of minus one was Luke Wirrolow. A great achievement and the only player under par for the day.

Well done all and thanks for a great turn out.

Our next outing is on Tuesday 12th August and will be for the Webster cup at Bradford G.C.

Details are on the events section of this website. Can I please ask payments (£46) to be made by Friday 9th August.

That’s all for now, Happy swinging!!!
