THE sun was shining again last Wednesday. 4 December, for the Gloucester Golf Ladies’ Summer Competition, an Individual Stableford event over 12 holes.
There was plenty of run on the fairways as the grass dries out, while the water levels in the dams are getting low enough to expose those balls that were duffed off the tee over the last few months.
Liane Markey was demonstrating that practice pays off, winning the day’s event with 29 points, after a solid practice session on the driving range and putting green earlier in the week.
Liane was closely followed by Susie Higgins, 28, with balls also won by Rhonda Nightingale, 25 and Moya Harris, 24.
The Nearest-to-the-Pin on the 4th and 13th holes was won by Elaine Murray, while the course was the winner on the 15th hole, with no players managing to hit the green off the tee.
The Gloucester Golf Ladies Summer Competition continues each Wednesday through to late February.
