Gervaise grabs July Medal
A level par back nine after an equally impressive three over front nine secured the July Medal for Gervaise Hughes.
The 11-handicapper booked his place in the club championship in impressive syle with a nett 62 to win the day ahead of the inform low handicapper Niall McGurgan.
Four pars kicked off Gervaise's round before he dropped three shots over the next three holes. But at the turn it was all the damage he had done.
He hit the back-straight in determined fashion, opening with a birdie four at the par four tenth hole, dropped a shot at the next, and a birdie three at 14 compensated for a further dropped shot at 16 for a level par back nine.
Level par was the story of runner-up Niall McGurgan's front nine and with a one under par back nine with a birdie at the last, he deservedly collected the prize with a nett 63.
Another Niall, Niall Brady, claimed first prize in Category One with a nett 65 and Royal School teacher Ian Millar graciously accepted second with a nett 66, collecting a share of the Two's pot on the way with a bridie two at the ninth hole.
In Category Two Neil Monaghan shot a nett 65 including a birdie three at the second hole for his first prize, and Kyle Johnston was runner up with a nett 66.
John Toner's nett 65 secured him first prize in Category 3 and Joe McKenna claimed second with a nett 66.
