SPORT: Yea Gender Trophy contest heats up
Wednesday (Jan. 22) saw 22 golfers contest a stableford round (6) in the gender challenge. With the weather much cooler and some gusting wind, conditions were a little different to the hot summer golf of recent weeks.
Winner of the day on CB was Di Elliott (27) from Penny Britton (31) both with 39 points. Gary Pollard (13) with 38 points was next best.
However due to the handicap position of the Men(based on four more players) he was not counted in the Gender Points. Next best was Vicki Butler (43) with 37 points from Chris Keogh (37) and Russell Haack (16) both with 33 points.
The Ladies took the Team Average 31.8 to the Men 28.9. NTP’s on the 18th were Di Elliott and Gary Pollard, with John Renehan winning the Club Award. So for the day the Ladies scored 70 points to the Men 15. Overall standings after five Rounds are: Men 235 and the Ladies 190.
