A good field of 73 turned out today to try and grab the Thursday Championship title for 2017 from the 2nd round leader, Al Sperling, who had a two round total of 69 points.  The Course is in terrific shape as fairway and rough cutting has commenced, so apart from the slick greens, there was no real excuse for ordinary golf.

However most of us were able to produce some run of the mill scores today, apart from Peter Hobson who produced Best Score of the Day with a blistering 39 points.

Al Sperling sadly didn’t better either of his previous two rounds score and was hanging onto the lead at 69 points. Peter Hobson had a best 2nd round of 30, and with today’s 39, joined Al on 69 points.

Greg Ellt was joint 1st round leader with 36 points, but faded out of contention as did local plumber Stuart Harry who played with Jessica during the school holidays, and had Won the day with Best 2nd round score of 36 points, but was back at work today and missed out.

With a 36 points in the first round, and 34 points in today’s round, one the Club’s best lefties, finished with a total of 70 points and much to his surprise, Doug Clemann was crowned Thursday Champion.
