Seniors Autumn Stableford October 13 2020


The Seniors Section’s ‘Autumn Swing’ continued on October 13 with the Autumn Stableford, played in relatively benign conditions from the John O’Gaunt yellow tees.

In first place was Richard Coventry with 35 points and the only person to have his handicap cut (from 14.0 to 13.7). Richard’s score included an impressive seven pars in the first 10 holes.

In second place was Ian Riches on 34 points and in third place was Stephen Collins, also on 34 points.

Commiserations to Richard Knell, Ralph Black, Malcolm Falconer and Steve Clark who all also had 34 points but lost out on countback.

There was a total of 94 entrants, eight of whom had to withdraw either just before the competition or on the day.  

Despite the favourable conditions, Stableford scores were relatively low, perhaps due to lack of run on the ball following recent periods of heavy rainfall.

The number of players who managed to enter their scores on IG fell slightly to 64 per cent.
