Eamon lifts Gerry Lenagh Trophy
Eamon Mallon was the big winner in County Armagh Golf Club's Open Week, lifting the Gerry Lenagh Trophy.
The annual stableford competition was the climax of a thrilling series of mens', womens' and juvenille events and once again attracted one of the biggest fields of the year. Breezy conditions removed any chances of repeated record scoring seen earlier in the week. But it still took an exceptional score to win the coveted trophy presented by the Lenagh family.
Eamon's 42 points claimed the prize. 22 points accumulated over the front nine holes laid the foundations of what was to be a steady scoring round in which he added a further 20 points over the back nine holes.
It was just enough to edge it in front of a chasing pack of four players all returning 41 points and having to be separated on countback.
Barry McGurgan's 23 points back nine took the runners up prize, Brendan Powell's back nine 21 earned him third, Damien Grimley's no-score at 14 cost him dearly but his 21 points back nine still secured him fourth place, and Nigel McMahon claimed prize number five after a sizzling front nine 23 points and a further 18 recorded on the homeward trek. Ronan O'Reily continued his run of good form to take sixth with 40 points.
The Gross Stabelford competition was equally competitive and four-handicaper Neil Cromwell's level par round (36 points) deservedly claimed the honours, six-handicapper Conal Hamill second with 34points beating Conor McGurgan (2) also with 34 points, on countback.
Downpatrick Golf Club's Stephen McAneney won the Visitors Prize with 37 points.
