Club championships underway

Blue Lake Golf Club quarter finals for ladies produce strong results

The weather knows to hold off the rain until golf is completed on Wednesdays and it did just that with just a slight drizzle at one stage whilst the quarter finals of the 2022 Club Championships were being run for the women at the Blue Lake Golf Club last week. 5/3

It was always going to be a battle between Edwards and Martland with both skillful in match play, a very different game having to out think your opponent instead of the course.

On the turn Edwards was 1 up then ramped it up winning 10th, 12th and 13th. Martland fought back with wins on the 11th and 15th but a win on the 17th saw Edwards take the game.

Agars and Panagopoulos were even after the outward nine the scores then seesawed until it was even after 18 holes creating sudden- eath going to the 19th with Agars the victor.

The Ashby v Perryman was also even after the outward nine, both have a few match-play finals under their belts and four holes were squared but it was Perryman with the wins on 12th, 13th and 16th to cement the win.

Hill and Stratford enjoyed a good match-up with Stratford 2-up on the turn but Hill was able to dig deep and win six and Stratford only one of the next seven holes for the game win.

DivisioTwo’s Mahoney was taken by surprise when Anderson, first time finals player, won the 1st and 2nd holes, then settled and won the 3rd and 4th, 6th, 7th, and 8th and squaring the 9th making her 3- up. Mahoney won another three holes, Anderson only one giving the win to Mahoney.

Hommelhoff and Allen seesawed on the front nine, Hommelhoff 1-up then repeated that on the back nine finishing on the 17th a win to Hommelhoff.

Oberer was able to take charge on the front nine turning 4-up on Case boosting her confidence squaring the 10th and 12th, winning the 11th and 13th to finish on the 13th.

Lastly was the match between good friends Hirth and Gill. With a close front nine Gill 1-up going into the back nine then showing her dominance with wins on 10th, 11th and 12th, squaring the 13th and 14th winning the 15th to take the win.

The semi-finals match-ups are DIV 1 – Edwards v Hill, Agars v Perryman. DIV 2 – Mahoney v Gill, Hommelhoff v Oberer and will tee off from 8.30 with those not in semi’s to play a stableford competition.
