Student James lifts Woods trophy

BIG-hitting James Conlon lifted the Woods Trophy in the Open Scratch competition at County Armagh with a superb exhibition of golf and a brilliant Gross 71 winning score.

Birdies at the second and eighth holes compensated for a bogey at the first hole and a double bogey at the fourth holes. And with pars all of the others, the city student was just one over par at the halfway stage. In between a further seven pars James tucked away a birdie four at the twelfth hole and but for one dropped shot at the 17th it should have been a level par back nine.

However, his Gross 71 it was enough to win the coveted prize by a shot from seven-handicapper Stuart Lee who returned an equally impressive Gross 72. In very similar fashion he too was just one over after nine holes and with birdies at the 10th and 12th holes might even have bettered James' score had he not dropped shots at both the par threes on the back nine and a further shot at the relatively easy 15th hole.

Six-handicapper Kieran Donnelly was even more impressively one under after 15 holes before he dropped a shot at the 16th hole and a further two at the 18th to finish with a Gross 73. It deserdly earned him third prize.

And Wayne Telford picked up the Gross 0-5 Handicap prize with a Gross 70, the three-handicapper knocking in no less than six birdies during his level par round.

A Senior moment for Captain Tom!

County Armagh Golf Club Captain Tom Calvert won the Open Week Seniors competition by what he readily admits himself was the narrowest of margins.

It was his 23 points racked up over the back nine holes to accompany 19 points over the front nine holes for a total 42 which ultimately won Tom the prize. Birdies at holes  five, 13 and 14 where the highlight of his round.

But clipping at his heals were no less than four players also returning 42 points - Mick Murphy, Eugene Creelman, visitor Colin Wallace and Richard Black.

Winning ways rub off on Ian

Ian Ritchie picked up the winning bug from fellow playing partner and recent Webster Cup winner Neil Linton to take the honours in the Club Stableford competition.

An excellent 44 points - 22 recorded both front and back nines - secured Ian the prize in a considerably reduced field from the previous day.

Barrie Walker had surprisingly the better of Ian over the front nine holes with 24 points, but could add only a further 19 for a total 43 points to take second prize. His round included birdies at the second, fifth, sixth, eighth and 12th holes.

Eamon McVeigh was two points further adrift on 41 points with 20 and 21 points respectively front and back nine holes took third.

And Kieran Mullan returned to the prizes with 40 points claiming fourth on the day, a birdie three at the par four fifth hole the highlight of his round which yeilded 20 points front and back nines.

Noel's late, late show

Noel Casson put on a late, late show to win the Sunday Club Stableford with an impressive 43 points.

A back-nine total of 24 points proved pivotal in the results countback when Martin Oliver and Ronan O'Reilly also carded 43 superb points. With 21 points covering the back nine however, Marty gracefully gave way to Noel's winning margin.

Ronan O'Reilly racked up 23 points over the front nine holes - back-to-back birdies at the par three third hole and par four fourth hole boosted his tally significantly. But he wasn't able to match that fine scoring on the return trek, recording 20 points for a total 43 points and third prize.
