Medals Played In Cold Conditions

July 10, 2020 By Maggi Barnard

Garry Collits wrapped up against the cold conditions.

On Saturday, the Men’s competition was the July Monthly Medal, sponsored by Walkers Ag-n-Vet, and contested by a field of 65 shivering players.

The A-Grade saw an in-form John Bet- land with a nett 72, beaten into runner-up by winner Brian Everest with a 71 nett. Ethan Gaffney with a nett 72 played well but missed out on count back.

The B-Grade winner was Jeff Haley with 70 nett, but he needed a count back to relegate Dave Earl into runner-up. The C-Grade was more clear-cut, with Mark Simmonds the Winner on 67 nett, followed by Brian Clarke as runner-up on 69 nett.

Last Saturday we farewelled Head Pro Ben Gear and his partner Som. Both Ben and Som have achieved a lot while among the Forbes golf community. We wish them well in their new life in Cairns.

President Andrew McDonald is pleased to announce the appointment of a new Head Professional, Adam Demidjuk who will commence duties as Head Pro on 3 August. Pop in during that week to welcome him to Forbes.

Programme changes: Saturday, 11 July – Men play a 2-P Ambrose, with a Par event for the Ladies, while Saturday, 18 July sees the 4BBB Stableford Medley for the Hawke Cup.

Players are advised that in the short-term refreshments will be available from the Halfway House. Remember, social distancing must still be practiced, even in the ‘Golfie’. Keep in touch on the website, www.forbesgolf.org.au, or the Facebook page forbesgolfcourse, and on Instagram forbesgolf2871.
