Paul is Club Champion

PAUL Corvan has added the 2012 County Armagh Golf Club Champion award to his vast array of sporting trophies already adorning his home.

The city sportsman collected his trophy from Club Captain Brendan Smith at the weekend after producing the winning scores in the 24/7 Fuels sponsored Club Championship competition.

Qualifying early in the season, Paul secured his win with a nett score 133 from the two rounds played over consecutive weekends. A nett 66 on day one was one of the lowest and gave him an excellent platform for Round 2 in which he produced a nett 67.

It was one shot better than 4-handicapper Neil Cromwell who produced two rounds of nett 67 for his 134 total and picked up the runners up prize.

Third placed Hugh McAneney was a further shot a drift after his two rounds of 69 and 66 nett for a 135 total.

Charles Vernon's nett 65 on day 2 proved the difference between fourth and fifth. He carded 72 nett on day one for a 137 total which was equalled by Mark Loughran who came in with scores of 68 and 69.

Captain's Day winner Gary Lappin picked up sixth with two scores of nett 69 and 138 total.
