2019 Gents Seniors Open

June 17, 2019 by davidbrookens

Saturday & Sunday 15th and 16th June – Gents Seniors Open

Heavy rain on Saturday morning did not quite shut the course but a decent afternoon forecast allowed the field to postpone until brighter skies appeared. Scoring was decent rather than spectacular and CSS stayed at 63/36 points. Visiting players fared well with only 4 home based players featuring in the top 10 placings. Graeme Andrew of Lamlash bagged the only 2 of the day at 2nd hole.

1st Peter Haveron (18) – 38 points

2nd John Pennycott (14) – 37 acb

3rd Gordon Drummond (11) – 37 acb

4th Graham Rees (17) – 37

Sunday morning dawned bright and clear and again it was mainly visiting players who dominated with only 3 home players featuring in the top 10 places. Scoring at the top of the leaderboard was good but the rest of the field must have provided a counterbalance as CSS went out to 64/35 points. Dave Hackett and Pete Towndrow bagged the only 2s of the day at the 4th and 17th respectively.

1st Iain Bruce (20) – 40 points

2nd Colin Nisbet (14) – 38

3rd John Pennycott (14) – 36

4th Ian Bremner (8) – 34

In a departure from previous years the 2019 Seniors Championship was decided over the course of both rounds and the winner on this occasion was, fittingly enough, our ever generous main sponsor, Colin Nisbet, with a 36 hole total of 73 Stableford points. Congratulations Colin – nice to see you taking something out of the very much you put in.

Thanks to all who came and supported our Seniors Open. It was generally agreed that the course is the best it has been for many years and heartfelt thanks go especially to Stewart, Corey and George for their expert work. Thanks also to John, Nancy, Jenni and Louise. It’s never easy keeping a crowd of golfers fed and watered but as usual the service in the clubhouse was first class. Last but by no means least, a huge thank you to Colin Nisbet for his generous sponsorship of this popular event to which so many familiar faces return year on year. We must be doing something right and hopefully we’ll see you all again in 2020.

Sunday 2nd June – Club Championship Final

June 3, 2019 by davidbrookens

Sunday 2nd June – Club Championship Final

Despite unappealing weather conditions forcing a delayed start, the 2019 championship final did not disappoint as Danny Head and Jamie Macpherson battled out a close 36 hole match. In the morning round Jamie had the better of the front 9 after winning the first 2 holes. At the turn, he  won 10 and 11 to take a 3 hole lead. Danny then won 3 in a row to square the the match on the 17th tee and went on to win the 18th and a 1 hole advantage at the lunch break. In the afternoon round the positions were almost exactly reversed with Jamie having to claw back a 3 hole deficit as the match came to a climax. Danny, 1 up on the 36th tee, managed to hold his nerve for a halved hole and the 2019 club championship.

Well done to both players for provided such an exciting spectacle for the hardy band of spectators that followed the game in damp and misty conditions, especially during the morning round. The match was played in the best of spirit over a course in great shape. Thanks to Stewart and Corey for their efforts there. The common consensus is that the course is in as good condition as it has ever been. Thanks also to John and Nancy in the clubhouse for the fine food and drink, most welcome on such  a dreich day.

Last, but definitely not least, congratulations to Danny Head, Whiting Bay GC Champion Golfer of 2019
