Wednesday 24^th June – Summer Trophy

The first Summer Trophy round following easing of the lockdown rules attracted a field of 17 who found the course in fantastic condition upon the resumption of competition golf. By any standards Stewart has done a fantastic job, rendered even more creditable by the fact he is working unassisted at present.

Scoring on the day was impressive with CSS dropping to 62 and 13 of the field returning scores in the net 60s. Clearly the layoff has benefited players as well as the course but none more so than Nicol Auld who carded a storming gross 61,  yet  won by only 2 shots.

1st Nicol Auld (6) – 55 and lowest gross

2nd David Blair (15) – 57

3rd Kevin McAleney (10) – 59

4th John Pennycott( 14) – 60 acb

Nicol Auld and Kevin McAleney bagged 2s at the 4th. Nicol repeated the feat at the 7^th.

Sunday 8^th March – Winter Cup Rd 6

With a number of players in contention for the trophy, 9 played in the 6^th and final round of this season’s Winter Cup. Despite wet underfoot conditions, and heavy rain that blighted the final few holes, scoring was good and CSS stayed at 63. Neil ”Sonic” Lucas beat that by 1 shot to pip John Pennycott

1st Neil Lucas (14) – 62

2nd John Pennycott (14) – 63

3rd Douglas Auld (209) – 66

Jamie Macpherson returned the lowest gross score with a 71 and Neil Lucas chipped in at the 14th for the only 2 of the round.

The overall winner of the Winter Cup is Wolfi Kroner who prevails on a countback from John Pennycott. Both players returned 3 cards totalling level par of 189 but Wolfi’s last counting score, a net 61 in the 5th round, was enough to let him retain the trophy he also won last year.

Congratulations Wolfi!
