Stanthorpe Sporters welcomed home President Thorny who has been MIA as he waited for his vehicle to be repaired somewhere back of beyond I understand.

Vehicle repaired he was finally able to get back on the road and head for home.

Unfortunately, his return to Sporters did not finish with a win.

It was his playing partner, Terry Roser, who returned the best for the day, a nett 25 on the front nine ensured him of a decisive win.

The other Terry, Byrnes that is, claimed the runner up prize with a nett 28.

Mark Lynam(29 nett) held off the rest of the field for the run down prize.

Paul Armstrong returned to some good form and once again had the best gross score of 40.

There was only one pin shot on offer, and it went begging as no one was able to land on the green for the pin shot.

Several of the usual suspects were involved in Sunday’s club mixed foursome championships and could not play Sporters.

They are expected to be back on Sunday to bolster the welcome to join in and have a hit.
