There was another good turnout for the Stanthorpe Sporters Sunday nine hole round last week.
The back nine was in play which meant there were two pin shots to aim for and no need to go down to the very wet sixth hole.
President Ray Thorn has had a few awkward weeks recently which have seen “eights” added to his score card. Last Sunday he put the eights to bed and as a result returned a much more respectable nett 25. A cut of the cards was called for when Ivan Juriss also returned nett 25. The cards favoured the President and he picked up the win while Juriss settled for runner up.
Aaron Simmers collected the first run down after returning 26 and Margie Locke the second for her nett 27. Both players are not far off a win, and it will be no surprise either one pop up in the winner’s circle sometime soon.
It was a long process but eventually the Best Gross went the way of Dick Hilton following a three way battle in the cut of the cards with a six beat a three and a two. Who would have guessed.
Ivan Juriss held the pin shot at the 12th and Dick Hilton the pin at 17.
Sporters will be out and about again this Sunday morning. Tee off is not too early, 7.30-8am and the front nine will be in play.
Golfers and non-golfers are welcome to join Sporters as there is no requirement to hold an official handicap – if necessary, one will be allocated on the day.
