Antrobus Seniors Open results from Mike Healey July 5th 2023

Seniors - Along with no fewer than 31 other senior members, we have just returned from the Senior Open being held at Antrobus Golf Club. The weather forecast was not too good at the outset and we were indeed met by a few light flurries, with some heavier rain about 10.30. However, it did not last long and the remainder of our round was at least warm and dry. The course was in relatively good condition with true and fast greens but most of our pairs managed to score on a regular basis and some good cards were returned. The final positioning from the Antrobus club will be released forthwith but in the meantime they presented our organiser Brian Beaton (another splendid job organising 32 of us) with a voucher for a fourball to play the course in the future. 32 numbers went into the hat and the voucher was drawn by Vic Rogerson. Meanwhile, in our own kitty competition, the following four couples took home the prizes: Antrobus Senior Open: First: Tom Pierce and Alan Pocklington - 46 points Second: Mike Jordan and Graham Wright - 45 points Third: Peter Fraser and George Hughes - 44 points Fourth: Mick Carnell and Damian Atkin - 42 points Andy Mitchel/Ernie Williams and Nev Bassett/ Dave Fergus also carded 42 points but missed out on countback.
