We played the A and C nines today and found both of them in very good condition and with excellent, fast greens.

We had a new winner today with Don Everett coming out on top with thirty seven points ahead of Joe McArdle on count back.  We then had two players with thirty six points and here Ronan Simms won the count back to come third and Donal McGuigan had to settle for fourth.

Russell Gilroy wasn’t in the prizes today but he still got some money as he had a ‘2’ but he had to share the pot with Ronan Simms, Ted Morris and Don Everett.

Stuart Brown.

1st Stuart Brown (11) 40pts

2nd Andy Featherstone (6) 37pts

3rd Don Everett (22) 33pts

We were again on the A and B courses here at Burapha and it seems like Russell Gilroys great run has come to an end as for the second comp this week he failed to make the prizes.

Today it was Stuart Browns turn to shine and he had a very clear win with forty points.  Andy Featherstone had just arrived back and was complaining about jet lag but it certainly didn’t affect his performance as he came second with thirty seven points.  Don Everett took the third and last podium place with thirty three points.

Stuart Brown made it an even better payday as he had the only ‘2’ of the day.
