Nike Futures Tour Sunningdale Ladies
We had our third event at Sunningdale Ladies on Sunday 28th April. On this short, but demanding, course a number of players were able to shoot some really low scores. If you have a good short game you can certainly get your handicap down here if you can play the par 3s. Oscar Fuentes (Bearwood Lakes) proved that point with a remarkable nett 45 (14 under the CSS) off a handicap of 27. Amazingly he only won the Under 12s handicap prize by 2 from James Gregory (Stoke Park) with 3 others a further 2 back with nett 49s. Those lads will be happy with their handicap reductions!
The main events, of course, are Scratch and it was Steven Stanhope (Frilford Heath) who won the Under 14s secton with a gross 59 – just one over par. It may be some time before Steven enjoys breaking 60 again in his golfing career. He was 3 clear of John Gough (Stoke Park), who won the first 2 events. His second place keeps him heading the Order of Merit. Struan Hancock (Bearwood Lakes) had an excellent 66 to win the Under 12s section on countback from Thomas Gregory (Stoke Park). They share the OOM points as all ties share combined points. We move on to Hadden Hill at the end of May for Round 4.
