Sunday 14^th July – The Raymond Curtis Salver

26 played on another glorious morning and found the course matched the weather. With our “Open” fast approaching the greens are in great shape requiring a delicate touch with the putter while still rewarding well struck chips and pitches. Scoring was good with the majority of the field scoring in the net 60s but for all that CSS remained at 63. Neillie McKechnie bettered that by 3 shots to win by 2 from Graeme Crichton.

1st Neil Mckechnie (12) – 60

2nd Graeme Crichton (13) – 62

3rd Murray Foggo (7) – 63 acb

4th Jim Mack (21) – 63 acb

Neil Richardson returned the lowest gross score with a 69 and magic 2s were abundant – Michael Mannering at 4, Graeme Crichton at 7, Graeme Mack at 12, Murray Foggo at 13 and Kevin Jackson at 17.

Sunday 7^th July – The Whiting Bay Improvements Trophy

Another fine summer morning drew a good field of 24 for the latest of our charity support opens with many of our regular visitors returning as well as some newbies. Nice to see them all getting to enjoy the course in its present fabulous condition and hopefully the newbies will themselves become regulars.

Scoring was good but nonetheless CSS stayed at 63/36 points. Fraser Mackenzie beat that handsomely to win by 2 points from last years runner up, Stewart McGregor who this year matched last year’s winning total.

1st Fraser Mackenzie (24) – 40 points

2nd Stewart McGregor (13) – 38

3rd Stuart Paterson (13) – 36 acb

4th David Blair (15) – 36

Magic 2’s came from Graeme Mack at the 4th and 17th and from Stuart McGregor, Stuart Paterson and John Pennycott all at the 17th.
