 EASTHAMPSTEAD MEN’S SENIOR OPEN – 2006

Wednesday, 21st June saw our first Senior Open staged at the Downshire complex.

The Competition, which is planned to be an annual event, attracted entrants from Downshire to Dublin. 

Fifty five golfers (full results below), of varying ages and varying skills, teed off on a  pleasant sunny day  and played  a course that had it’s white tees set right back on the plates on most holes.  With the course playing longer than many members had ever experienced and with a strong wind that appeared to blow in all directions, conditions were testing enough for even the single figure golfer.

The Overall winner was Mr. Peter Wilson (Woodhall Spa) with a very creditable forty Stableford points.  Peter also picked up the prize for Nearest-the-Pin on the 7th hole whilst Mr. Bert Whitcher (Easthampstead) drove his ball the furthest to win the Longest Drive on the 18th.  Peter can be seen (third from the left) below with George Richardson (who organised the event), Reg Todd (who came up with the idea of the event) and Jim Spencer (our Captain) who was good enough to take some time off work to present the prizes.

A buffet lunch was served at the 19th hole and competitors were able to watch the scores come in on the electronic leaderboard which was operated by our Mr. Alistair Nunn-Price who also was good enough to take time off work to help out.

The day went without incident.  No pacemaker batteries failed and everyone remembered where they’d parked their car!  In fact, the only ‘senior moment’ was supplied by our very own Mr. Cleve Vine who forgot to sign his card.  He was awarded a ‘DQ’ for his oversight.

Next year’s Senior Open has been scheduled for Wednesday, 13th June.  An entry form will appear on the website from around April.  So, “watch this space”.
