Scott bows out on a high at Blue Lake Golf Club

The sunny weather, albeit with some strong wind gusts, was welcomed by the Blue Lake Golf Club ladies teeing off last Wednesday in the rescheduled July monthly medal sponsored by Grant and Dianne Perryman in conjunction with the 2nd round of the Scotty’s Loader Services Mt Gambier President’s Trophy played in stroke format. The longer outward nine proved to be the most difficult to score well even though the fairways offered up lots of run.

Monthly medal winner Geraldine Scott backed up Saturday’s win playing to her handicap again.

With the score of the day signing for 99/27/72 Scott was able to take 9 strokes off her outward nine hole score of 54 to come home with 45 on the inward and included pars on the 12th and 15th holes.

Josie Ashby 95/23/72 was also back in the winner’s circle taking the runner up voucher after a countback from Scott.

Ashby had splits of 49/46 with a birdie on the par five 5th and pars on the 12th and 15th. Rosemary Martland’s consistency has also seen her a regular on the podium.

Posting 91/17/74 from splits of 47/44 with a birdie on the 11th and pars on the 14th and 17th was good enough to win the third prize voucher.

Jaynee Oberer was the best in Division 2 finishing on top of the podium with 108/33/75. A few too many double bogies crept onto her scorecard with splits of 55/53 but was good enough to take the win.

Another regular in the winner’s circle, Johanna Gogan 113/35/78 had two consistent nines of 57/56 and did include a par on the 12th. Bev Pascoe was not far behind signing for 113/34/79 from splits of 58/55.

Nearest to the pin on the 16th winners were Sue Agars (div 1) and Pascoe (div 2).

The pro-shot on the 5th was won by Helen Myers and the putting won by Scott 26 and Gogan 31.

Birdie/ Ferret prizes went to Ashby 4th, Martland 11th and chip-in ferrett prizes to Ashby 3rd, Cherryl Hill 4th, Pascoe 11th This week is the annual Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraiser Day with attendees urged to dress in pink. The format is pinehurst pairs.

SEPTEMBER 2 RESULTS

The stableford competition was a combination of single scores and aggregate pairs scores for the annual Wal Hudson Trophy sponsored by the Hudson family and also a chance to dress up in favourite footy colors.

A good size field of 19 women hit the fairways with Geraldine Scott showing the way with 36 points just one stroke shy of playing to her handicap of 27. Her splits of 17/19 included a par on the 16th with no scrubs recorded.

A countback ensued with Karen Panagopoulos also signing for 36 points but it was Scott with the better back nine score to win out.

Panagopoulos off 26 had splits of 19/17, also with a par on the 16th and no scrubs on her card.

Rosemary Martland off 17 scored 35 points with a outward score of 14 to pick up much needed points on the inward, posting 21.

Pars were recorded on the 9th, 11th, 14th and 15th with a scrub on the 7th.

Ronda Edwards and Karen Panagopoulos 35/36 (71) won the women’s aggregate pairs in the women’s section of the Wal Hudson.
