Jimmy brightens summer with June Medal win

JIMMY Wilson’s summer arrived in fine style as he celebrated a June Medal victory at County Armagh Golf Club.

The six-handicapper signed for a superb nett 65 to claim the coveted prize and a place in the Club Championship in September.

A one-under par 33 shots for the front nine holes set the scene for Jimmy. Indeed it was the unlucky 13^th hole before he dropped his first shot.

A birdie three at the 15^th however, restored his one-under par score, but on the very difficult 16^th he again suffered a bogey.

Jimmy steadied himself with a par at the 17^th but with his best round of the year in sight he let slip a further shot to finished with a one-over gross 71 and winning nett 65 score.

Despite that nervous finish it was enough to claim the Medal ahead of MJ Murphy who also carded a hugely impressive nett 65. But on countback he had to settle for the runners up prize on the day.

Newcomer John Beale led home the low handicappers with a nett 67 off his four handicap - birdies at the 3^rd, 13^th and 18^th holes were the highlight of a superb round, but a double bogey six at the first hole ultimately cost him dearly.

Paul Corvan was the Category One runner up and could have the handicap committee looking over his shoulder once again with his nett 67.

Mark Stevenson’s nett 66 claimed the Category 2 first prize – his better back nine winning ahead of GE O’Reilly who also carded a nett 66.

Gary Baird’s nett 66 and again, better back nine, earned him first prize in Category 3 where runner up on the day was Gerry Cullen also with a nett 66.

SUCH was his impressive margin of victory in County Armagh's recent Open Stabelford, Brian Wilson's nickname 'Red' was appropriately fitting - embarrassingly so!

The flame-haired Wilson's 45 points was the outstanding score in the competition, kindly sponsored by King Brothers Quarry.

The 13-handicapper dropped three shots on both front and back nine holes respectively, but birdie 2's at the 3rd and 13th holes saw him register a nett 61 for his 45 points.

Nathan Grimley on any other day might have claimed first prize with an excellent 43 points. But the 7-handicapper had to settle for runners up prize on this occasion. 22 and 21 points respectively from front and back nine saw Nathan home with 43 points.

Gerry Kelly's 43 points, secured despite four double bogeys, was enough to earn him third prize with John George Willis a further two points a drift on 41 points picking up fourth prize.

Dungannon Golf Club visitor G O'Callaghan was a deserved fifth prize winner with 41 points and Nigel 'Onion' McMahon's steady 40 points took sixth, with Mark Loughran picking up 7th with 39 points.

Conor McGurgan's 37pts and Neil Cromwell's 35pts were the best Gross scores on the day.

Winner of the King Bros Quarry sponsored Open Stableford, Brian 'Red' Wilson is presented with his prize by Mark and Jonathan King from the Armagh company, who joined Club Captain Pat McAleavey for the competition presentation to Brian and and runners up, (from left), Nigel McMahon, Neil Cromwell, Gerry Kelly and John George Willis.
