Winner Ian Simpson receives the trophy from Seniors Captain Tony Lloyd
Ian Simpson was confirmed as Senior Section Golfer of the Year today after winning the Three Clubs and a Putter competition, our final GOTY qualifier.
Seventy-five golfers took to the Carthagena course armed with only three clubs and a putter each. Some chose better than others as the scores showed.
Only two players scored 36 points or more.
In third place, with 35 points, was Mike Bonwick.
Commiserations to Bob Anderson who was clubhouse leader on 37 points for quite some time until he was pipped at the post by a player in the very last group out.
That person was Ian Simpson who won on countback with 37 points. He took out with him a 3 wood, 6 iron and 50 deg wedge which he used successfully to get out of no less than four bunkers.
His win also shot him to the top of the Golfer of the Year leaderboard with a final points tally of 88. Finishing just behind him were Terry Domagala (74), George Simmons (73), Dave Wrench (69) and Len Greaves (63).
For a short while the 3 clubs and a putter leaderboard was headed by Pat Gilgallon on 80 points which included six holes in one!
His fame was short lived however when Competition Organiser Nigel Underwood realised that Pat had entered his stableford points instead of his gross scores. (See Pat's card below)
Raffle prizes of £10 pro shop credit were won by Peter Imray, Stephen Cherry, Andy Brown and Bill Walker.
Runner Up Bob Anderson
Third place: Mike Bonwick
