Shelly Comerford’s wins Monthly Medal

WHETHER it was the Par competition or not, a smaller than usual field of 13 ladies played on Tuesday. Tracey Gravenall won with +1 followed by Marion Sargeant -1 and Sharon Gysberts -2 on a countback. Gravenall also had the nearest the pin on the 12th. Wednesday was a 4-Ball Stableford competition. The weather proved to be unpredictable with the field of 32 ladies called in mid-game when thunder and lightning struck. After a short break everyone headed back out to their marked balls. Judging by their reaction Pauline Ahola and Marion Mitchell were very pleased to be the winners with 45 points. They just pipped Kylie Egan and Tracey Gravenall on a countback. Sam Bailey and Marion Foster were third with 43. Line balls were Gayle Wells and Lorraine Cullen 41, Susan Kinloch and Marg Knapp 40 on a countback to Patsy Smiles and Sue Crow. Linda Brook and Natasha Grimshaw were next on 39 on a countback to Millie Cumming and Kirsten Scudamore. Nearest the pins were two each to Linda Terry and Sam Bailey, one to Lesley Anderson and on her recent return to golf, a stunning shot on 18th by Natasha Grimshaw. As the photo (below) shows, almost a hole in one. Saturday was Monthly Medal sponsored by Mansfield Pharmacy. Shelly Comerford continued her good form and had a great win with nett 73 on a countback to Linda Brook. Well done ladies. Third was Sue Parsons 74 on a countback. Line balls went to Lyn Poulson 74 on a countback to Sam Bailey and then Sharon Gysberts 75. Nearest the pins were two to Sue Parsons and one each to Shirley Nolan and Kylie Egan. Jenny Koraus won the putting. Good hitting for next week.
