The intention of this competition is to obtain one of the best four net scores or equals, and then get drawn into a knockout to ultimately win the Roberts Cup played on the 8th of May, a 'major' at Leek Golf Club
The recent rains had helped to make the greens a little more responsive, and 105 entrants battled it out to achieve the target of being entered into the Robert Cup draw. C.S.S. was 70
The attraction of this event to most players is that it is played off full handicap against the whole field, with no upper restriction.
The following players qualified to be drawn into a knockout:
Net 65 Rich Skelson 84 - 19 = 65
Net 66 J Walker 91 - 25 = 66
Net 68 G Aust 85 - 17 = 68; D Parkes 82 - 14 = 68; Rob Skelson 82 -14 = 68; AS Mitchell 95 - 27 = 68; E Nadin 78 - 10 = 6
Net 69 RJ Thompson 81 - 12 = 69; G Salt 77 - 8 = 69; DJ Alcock 80 - 11 = 69
THIS IS AN INTERESTING STAT:THERE WAS ONLY ONE PAR ON THE 13th HOLE! (& No birdies) out of 105 players!Congratulations to all-watch the notice boards for the draw in full.
