On Thursday last, 47 ladies competed in showery conditions in County Armagh Golf Club for the prestigious Macmillan Cancer charity competition, very generously sponsored by Vincent Mone & Son, Keady.
Even though underfoot conditions were quite wet, the greens were in pristine condition which led to a few very good scores. The top golfer on the day was Jacqueline Kelly who is a frequent visitor to the winner's enclosure this year. Jacqueline's 41 points earned her a handicap cut of 3 shots. The runner-up with 37 points was Ann Black, closely followed by Una Cullinnane and Paula McCrory in 3 rd and 4 th place with 36 and 35 points respectively.
The following category winners were:
Category A- B Rice 35 points
Category B- C McAleavey 32 points
Category C- N Spence 32 points
Category D- C Oliver 32 points
The front 9 prize went to D Harris with 19 points, while M Marjoram picked up the prize for the back 9 with 18 points. The 9 hole competition was won by M Knott and G McGowan was the top par lady with 30 points.
Ann Mone of Vincent Mone & Son presented the winners with a beautiful array of prizes in a packed clubhouse. Ann Mone said: “ We are delighted to be involved in the Macmillan Cancer charity competition and with proceeds going to such a worthy cause we hope to continue our support of this competition in the future.”
