Congratulations are due to Paul Williams (left) who won the first TT Roll-up 3-Club Challenge competition of 2019 with an impressive score of 40 Stableford points.
Playing with a 5-wood, a couple of short irons and a putter, Paul clearly found the benign weather and course conditions on the Green course to his liking. His round, perhaps surprisingly, included no birdies, but did comprise 11 pars and also, importantly, no blobs. He did not go in a single bunker either - a feat in its own right on the Green course.
Among the other participants, more than half had scores of better than 30 pts, once again giving the lie to the need to haul all those sets of 14 gleaming clubs around the course.
The best of the rest was Shaun Gavaghan with 34 pts. Shaun was playing his first full found since a heart operation, so his recovery is obviously going well.
Paul generously donated his winnings to Bob Headon’s Saturday charity collection.
