Scone Golf: Mar 3

By Lyn Banks

ON a very warm day on Thursday, the Scone lady golfers headed out early for the first of the medal rounds for the season.

It was played as an 18 Hole Stroke / Stableford competition and the course had plenty of run in parts.

The winner of the medal and the Melanie’s Jewellers voucher was Sarah Brooks who had her best round ever to record 63 nett.

June Jukes who also had a great round of 65 nett, had to settle for runner up but also won the raffle.

The NTP’s on the 2nd /11th were won by Division 1, Sue Watts, 5.21 metres and Division 2, Narelle Rutter 4.55 metres whilst Division 3 wasn’t won.

There were a number of hot scores and many players will need to check their handicaps before heading out next round.

Balls were won by Sarah Brooks 46, June Jukes 44, Ruth Wallace 39, Fiona Groom 38, Narelle Rutter 37 and Catherine Russell 35 points.

This might help to replace some of the balls the ladies lost to the crows!
