Stableford Records

 

golfer

In all those events since 1987 playing for the Stableford Trophy, who has won it the most times? And what about those who just missed out in the runner-up spot. And then there's those in third too. How have winners faired next time out, have they managed to defend their title well? What about the winning scores, how high have they been and how low. The margins too, how many run away winners or have they been down to the wire a number of times. All those Stableford records and facts are here for you to study.
