Wednesday, September 4th, saw the third annual playing of the Charles Hespin Cup. We had terrific support for our Seniors President, with a turnout of 30 golfers and the same number for the splendid two-course meal cooked by Andy and served by Kirsty and Jody.
Judging from the photos, everyone enjoyed themselves thoroughly both on the course – which was in excellent condition following the recent maintenance week – and in the club house. It was one of those days where everyone who played was a winner, but special prizes went to the following players:
Best Front 9 – Steve Johnson 20 points
Best Back 9 – Paul Davies 18 points
Nearest the pin (6th) – Les Hall
Nearest the pin (13th) – John Charlton
The overall competition for the Charles Hespin Cup probably produced the closest finish ever in HGC Seniors competitions, with four players achieving 36 points.
Once separated, the results were as follows:
Winner – John Morris 36 points BB9
2nd – John Nicholls 36 points BB6
3rd – Tony Davies 36 points BB6
4th – Les Hall 36 points
Thanks to all for attending and making it a great day for Charles. Special thanks to Lee, Paul and Clare in the pro shop, Woody for MC duties and Charlie for producing the menus. The biggest thanks go to Charles, who donated all the prizes.
The next Seniors competition is the Brecon Cup on Monday 16 th September.
