Autumn 1989 event at Purley Downs
Event 5 - 21st Sept 1989
|
After two years, the Society was now staging it's fifth Society day and this one was held
at Purley Downs, a particular favourite of the Society Organizer. Another good turnout and
fine weather too. Florence started the players off on the tenth which is the custom at Purley for
Societies. Scoring was again good, with a number of players shooting 36. Guest Peter
Beaumont was the early leader in the clubhouse on 37 which would be good enough for third spot.
Steve Watson blitzed the first nine in 23 points but could not quite maintain his scoring but
still finished with a superb 41. Two matches behind, Kevin Fitzgerald was also playing superb
golf and he shot 22 on his final nine holes for 41 as well. So for the first time ever it
went to the countback. Was the back nine, the second nine as played or the second nine on the
card? It was decided it should be, the second nine as played and so Kevin Fitzgerald had
squeezed home to win the Stableford Trophy.
Jackie Staples scored 33 points and for her fine effort was awarded a
prize for the first lady competitor since the Society started.
The nearest-the-pin at the 15th was won by Steve Watson and the longest-drive at the par five
fifth was won by Mick Harland. Both Gary Pitt and Kevin Howard
made two birdies each in the morning. An extra nearest-the-pin was held in the afternoon on the
tough first hole and this was won by John Fish. The Texas Scramble was made all the more
complicated by two four balls as one player had dropped out on the day. Neither would trouble
the winners though. The threesome of midfielder Gary Pitt, Peter Beaumont and defender Graeme Ley stormed to a three
shot victory.
