The final qualifying round was played on Saturday with a few significant changes to to the standings taking place. The top 4 qualifiers in each grade playoff in match play for the title. In A grade David “Jack” Webster scored a red hot 79 to reduce his 2 game tally by 12 strokes coming from outside the top 4 to take number 1 position on a count back from Pat Hallion. The hapless Mark “Mouldy” Millward has thus been relegated to 5th and will have to be content competing for the Plate. Some of you may recall that I predicted Pat Hallion as a likely champion this year and he is well placed to prove me right. It should be noted though, that all A grade finalists have won the title previously and in the cut & thrust of match play anything could happen.
In B grade, Matt Willis has put in 2 good final rounds to take the number 1 spot from Andy Phillips on a count back. Don’t write Andy off because his steady play can wear down opponents in match play. Richard “Pickles” Matz & Philip “Tommo” Thomson make up the numbers in B grade.
C grade appears to be a 3 way tussle and the mercurial Peter Weiss, although qualifying 3rd, will be suited by the match play format.
