IT WAS a welcome fine and cooler day at the Gloucester course on Tuesday 13 January, for the Gloucester Veterans regular outing, one that saw Chris Steele come home winner in a close finish.
The event was an Individual Stableford sponsored by Dale Rabbett. The winner on a count back from two other players was Chris Steele; he scored 37 points as did the leading two ball winners Sally Higgins and Karen Howarth. Close behind were Roy Crichton and Paul Thibault 36, Gai Falla 35 and Bill Murray 34.
The Nearest-to-the-Pin at the 4th and 13th holes was won by Paul Griffiths. That honour at the shorter 6th and 15th holes went to Karen Howarth and Paul Thibault.
Last Tuesday, 20 January, the Gloucester Veteran Golfers played an Individual Stroke event with a putting competition held in conjunction. Next Tuesday, 27 January, there will be a Four Ball Better Ball Stableford with an Individual event held in conjunction.
