AN HISTORIC CLUB WITH A MAGNIFICENT GEORGIAN PARKLAND SETTING SINCE 1893

Gentleman Gerry's a stableford winner

GENTLEMAN Gerard Kelly's birdie three at the 15th hole proved the deciding factor in the final club stableford of the season at County Armagh.

A countback was required when both he and Tommy Mackin each returned scores of 41 points. But that birdie just ncked the prize for Gerard. And the importance of it will have been thoroughly realised after a 'no-score' at the par five 12th!

There was infact, nothing to separate the two men after nine holes, both recording 21 points on their cards.

Kieran Grimley's 40 points and better back nine earned him first prize in the 0-12 handicap category with Michael Curley, 40 points, losing out on countback.

John Sheehan made a welcome return to the winners enclosure with his 38 points taking first prize in the 13-18 handicap category ahead of Paddy Darragh on 37 points.

Peter Murtagh and Paul Hughes both signed for 39 points but on a back nine countback Peter edged it to take the 19-28 handicap category prize.

Andrew Millar produced the best gross score, 32 points.
