AN HISTORIC CLUB WITH A MAGNIFICENT GEORGIAN PARKLAND SETTING SINCE 1893

Declan's a Medal winner

DECLAN McReynolds produced his best round of the season to win the County Armagh Golf Club August Medal with an impressive score nett 64.

Paul Corvan's double bogey at the par three 13th hole was his ultimate undoing when countback was required to separate the nett 64 scores both he and Declan declared.

Just two over par at the half-way stage, 11-handicapper Declan dropped only a further three shots on his homeward trek for his winng score.

Fourteen handicapper Paul was just three over par at the turn, but as well as that unlucky double bogey at 13, he dropped shots at 15, 16 and 18.

Early-bird Andrew Millar led home the Category winners with a nett 65 and better back nine securing him first prize in Category 1 ahead of George Bradshaw who returned the same score.

In the mid-handicap catetory it was another early-bird Colm McElroy who claimed first prize ahead of Jim McKeown, again countback was required to separate the two nett 66 scores.

And Leslie Lynas's nett 65 for a win in Category 3, where Colm O'Farrel was runner up on nett 66, secured his place in the Club Championship come next month.
