First Medal win for Neil
NEIL Linton won his first club Medal at County Armagh Golf Club with a superb 4-over par nett 67 score in the May Medal competition.
The Killylea man, playing of a handicap of seven, was the outstanding player in the huge field, winning by a single shot from 15-handicapper Kenny Richardson.
Bar two dropped shots - at the fourth and ninth holes - his outward trek was blemish free. And he repeated the superb scoring over the back nine holes with a birdie four at the 12th hole compensating for a double bogey six at the 17th. His only other dropped shot was at 16.
Kenny Richardson produced a steady round and with a nett 68 was deserving of his runners up prize.
Six-handicapper Paddy Digby's nett 68, losing out to Kenny on countback, led the way in the 0-12 handiap category, where the in-form Shea Smyth picked up the runners-up prize.
Danny McGee will rue his triple bogey seven at the 15th hole. His nett 68 secured him first prize in the 13-18 handicap category. And similarly Sean Dougan will be disappointed with three double bogeys on his card which recorded a nett 69 and earned him runners up in category.
Big-hitting Michael Calvert's nett 71 and consistent scoring of late won him the 19-28 handicap category and deservedly earned him a place on the Clu Cowdy team against Lurgan. He pipped Charlie Johnston to that first prize in category by virtue of a better back nine.
John Maguire produced the Best Gross score 72.
