On a day when the course bathed in searing sunshine, Mark Keogh turned in a suitably red-hot performance to grab the glory at County Armagh Golf Club.

In the Sunday stroke competition on 16 July, Keogh's winning nett 62 scorecard was a fuss-free affair, comprising as it did a neat-and-tidy 10 pars and eight bogeys.

Mark has had his handicap slashed from 16 to 14 on account of this impressive gross 78 but that should cause him few problems in the weeks ahead, especially if temperatures remain high enough for his liking.

The 14th hole at County Armagh: par 4, index 9, Sequoias.

An outstanding nett 63 on 15 July enabled Philip Richards to get his hands on the latest piece of silverware on offer at County Armagh Golf Club, namely the Allen Cup.

The stroke competition sponsored by JR McMahon Menswear was clearly tailor-made for Richards and, after just six holes, he had fashioned a highly agreeable position of being four under his handicap.

The towering left-hander's round then threatened to come apart at the seams with consecutive double bogeys at the 7th and 8th halting his progress. However, in the face of this potential adversity, Philip certainly measured up, posting pars to suit at the 9th, 14th and 15th in addition to a bespoke birdie at the 11th as he recaptured that early momentum.

Richards concluded proceedings with a pair of nicely fitting fives to complete a debonair performance that saw him eclipse his 172 Saturday opponents and secure a hard-earned two-shot handicap reduction.

County Armagh Golf Club President, Walter Neville, presents the Allen Cup to Philip Richards and daughter Nina after daddy's win in the JR McMahon Menswear-sponsored competition. Also pictured are category 2 winner, Alec Nesbitt, and runner-up, Gerry Kelly.

County Armagh Golf course escaped the worst of the summer downpours which saw some local courses closed on Thursday 20 th July. Despite the threat of thunderstorms, 50 ladies turned out to compete for the July Medal. A further 15 took part in a 9 hole competition with another 5 playing in the Get Into Golf competition.

Despite a computer glitch which required scores to be calculated manually, testing the patience of Anne, Una and Barbara, the results were completed in time for the presentation by Lady Captain Gail.

The course was in superb condition, with fast running greens making scoring difficult. Hilary Johnston found no such difficulty however, returning an excellent net 66 to win by 5 shots from Siobhan Donnelly, in second place. Gladys Villiers secured 3 rd place with a 72 while Ellen Brady took another Gross prize with 80 strokes.
