Oberer cards best score

Blue Lake Golf Club ladies tackle a par competition

The lovely Autumn weather was welcomed for the 2nd round of the Metro Bakery and Cafe sponsored Silver Salver played in par format at the Blue Lake Golf Club and with the course in tip top readiness for the PGA Legends Tour the women took advantage with some impressive scores posted.

Score of the day came from Division Two’s Jaynee Oberer who has been making inroads lowering her handicap of late and a plus four will certainly attract the attention of the handicapper.

The par competition is usually met with trepidition but a few pushed bad thoughts away and enjoyed good golf.

Division One’s Sue Agars off 19 and Carol Megaw off 27 both signed for plus one forcing a countback, the former taking the top voucher having the better back-nine score.

Agars was one down on the front-nine, coming home with pars on the 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th, three halved and two wiped holes, plus two.

Megaw was in control on the front-nine turning with four up and no wiped holes but fell away with only one plus, four halved and four wiped holes having to be happy with second spot.

Third prize winner was captain Geraldine Scott also going to a three-way tie with Rosemary Martland and Annette Ford all posting 1 down.

Scott off 23 had a front nine score of 3 down then finishing with 4 plusses including a birdie on the dogleg par four 15th on the back- nine. Division Two’s winner Jaynee Oberer off 33 had a plus 2 before turning to the back- nine adding another 3 plusses, 5 halved and one wipe to finish plus 4.

Vivienne Wilson off 35 finished square to her handicap also found herself in a three-way tie with Lyn Annand off 34 and Lynda Nannings.

After 2 plusses, 3 halved and 4 wipes on the front-nine and making ammends on the back- nine with 4 plusses, 3 halved and 2 wipes Wilson was 2nd and Annand 3rd, Nannings 4th.

Annand was one down after front nine adding 3 plusses, 4 halved and 2 wipes on the back nine.

Nearest to the 2nd shot winners were Annette Ford (Div 1) and Lesley McPherson (Div 2).

The proshot was won by Jo Gogan with a birdie on the 5th. Chocolate bar vouchers were given out to Gogan 5th, Scott and Nannings 15th for birdies and for ferrets to Ford 3rd, Bev Pascoe 7th, Nannings 15th.

Tomorrow is a stroke competition and is the 2nd qualifying round of the Belgiornos Cafe Handicap Championship. MARCH 11 RESULTS A stroke competition saw Bev Pascoe back in the winner’s circle signing for 104/31/73 with splits of 52/52 and included pars on the 5th and 9th holes.

2nd was Kate Hommelhoff 104/29/75, splits of 53/51, pars on the 5th and 7th and it was unfortunate that two eights happened on the 1st and 12th holes preventing a win.

Helen Stratford 93/17/75 took the 3rd voucher on offer after a countback with Rosemary Martland 90/14/76. The long drive was won by Dianne Perryman, the nearest to the pin Bev Pascoe and least putts Martland.
