On another perfect day for golf, Round 2 of the Club Championship saw plenty of movement on the leaderboard.
The Club Championship looks to be a race in two with Chris Leaver pegging back two shots today on leader Tom Sorrell. Tom’s two round score of 156 is one ahead of Chris. They tee off at 9:24 next Saturday and should be striding down the 18th a little after 1 pm. A nice gallery around the 18th green to see them home would be great so come along and have a look.
B grade saw Bruce Hutton extend his lead to 5 with Brendan Simon now leading the chasing pack.
C grade – As the AFL commentators say, you could throw a blanket over the leading 15 or so contenders. Geoff Maher and Patrick Bowd are equal leaders but the Captain is reading up on the play off rules with a tight finish assured.
D grade has the steady Peter Hobson holding a handy lead over Ian Watson but with a few of the chasing pack capable of producing a top notch round Peter will need to be at his best again next week.
