The quarter finals of the Jennison Cup, handicap match play, were decided on Saturday providing some closely fought matches. Mark “Mouldy” Millward defeated the long hitting Christopher “Critta” Waters 1 up. Critta scored 2 eagles in the first 3 hols but Mouldy showed exceptional patience and got on with his own game while Critta crashed to earth. Peter Weiss beat Big Trevor Maxted 3 & 1 while Dick Cleland needed 19 holes to defeat a much impoved Eddie “The Flying Dutchman” Van Keulen. The other semi final was played earlier with Philip “Tommo” Thomson successful over Andy Phillips.

Players not involved in matches played a Par round. Despite near perfect conditions the scores were so poor it is your correspondent’s view that the only prize that should have been handed out was the Mars Bar. Colourful local identity, Philip “Tommo” Thomson beat David “Robbie” Robinson on a count back both returning dismal scores of -3. Michael “Tickers” Tickner, on the other hand, really earned the Mars Bar with a score of -10.

Full results:

• -3 Philip Thomson, David Robinson
• -4 Bob Perry
• -5 Kobi Wenzel
• -6 Richard Matz, Richard Secomb
• -7 Pat Hallion

David “Robbie” Robinson took out Saturday’s stableford with a stunning score of 46 points. Some sympathy must be felt for runner up, Andy Spackman, who scored an impressive 44 points. Robbie has been threatening to post a score for some time and must have finally got his tee shots to go where he wanted them to. There was a big gap to third placed Mark “Mouldy” Millward and there were a number of scores under 30. A count back was required to decide the Mars Bar which went to Brett Wallis from Eddie “The Flying Dutchman” Van Keulen. Thier scores were so low we have decided not to share them with you.

Taking advantage of school holidays to get in some extra golf, Kobi Wenzel posted 41 stableford points to win Tuesday’s competition.

Results:
