Hello golfers,
Next week sees The Open start at Royal Troon for the 145th playing of the event. My picks for a win are either Jason Day or Rory McIlroy. For those of you who fancy a flutter, our Open Sweepstake is now up and running. Tickets cost £3 a square with all prize money going into prizes. To purchase your tickets please visit the pro shop, all squares purchased will be assigned a player on Wednesday, 13 July before The Open commences.
Good luck to all of those playing in this Sunday's Pro-Am which boasts a strong field of professionals and a fully booked start sheet. Please note that as a result the course will be closed until 5pm.
Kind Regards,
Paul Schunter
Director of Golf & Operations
Junior Success
More good news from the junior section with some excellent performances from Enrique Dimayuga and Owen Richardson. Enrique finished sixth at the English Schools 36 Hole Competition at Belton Park Golf Club in Grantham after rounds of 76 and 69. On the back of this result, Enrique has been selected to play for the U18 English Schools team to play Scotland Schools at Fairhaven Golf Club in Lancashire on Sunday, 11 September. Owen recently finished fifth while representing his School Whitgift in the Independent Schools Trophy at Burhill. A day later Owen finished fourth at the Surrey Schools Boys Championship which was won by, you guessed it, Enrique! Congratulations to you both on some excellent results, keep up the good work.
