As County Armagh Golf Club's dedicated competitions convenor, Shea Brady spends many hours holed up in the scorers' hut collating results from the many and varied CAGC tournaments.

His task will have been a good deal more pleasurable than usual on the evening of 9 June, when a hopeful shuffle through the scorecards revealed that Shea himself had emerged top of the pile.

The big five-handicapper two-over-par 72 was class, and the accruing nett 67 nudged him a shot clear of the chasing pack.

First Past the Post: Outdoor Sports in Armagh

Armagh City has been the home to many outdoor sports and pursuits since the late seventeenth century. While some sports are still alive and kicking, others have quietly disappeared from the map and memory.

To link with the 148th Open at Royal Portrush in July 2019, this exhibition tells the story of the many outdoor sports organisations in Armagh, both past and present. Golf, of course, features, as do bowling, horse racing, archery, tennis, road bowls, cricket, rugby, football, Gaelic football, hurling and road racing.

The second monthly Medal of County Armagh Golf Club's 2019 schedule was contested on 25 May and produced a marvellous victory for young Shane O'Hagan.

In the annual competition, as ever generously supported by Armagh Business Centre, O'Hagan opened in scintillating fashion, and a hat-trick of birdies at the 2nd, 4th and 7th took him to a stunning three under par with 11 holes to play.

In County Armagh Golf Club's PGA Tankard sponsored by Armagh Potato Co Ltd, Darren O'Hagan got his chips and wedges just right as he returned a golden gross 74 to leave his rivals burnt and broken.

The annual tournament was contested on 19 May, and this turned out to be something of a red-letter day for the victor. O'Hagan's birdies on the same double green of the 8th and 11th sprinkled the stardust, but his unflappable outing was constructed on the stable foundations of his 10 pars and half a dozen bogeys elsewhere.

County Armagh Golf Club's PGA Tankard prizewinners are pictured with competition sponsor, Charles Johnston from Armagh Potato Co Ltd, and Club Captain, Kenny Edgar. They are (L-R): Eamon O'Hagan (appearing on behalf of his son Darren), Colin Clarke, Eamon Toner, Paul Pender and Paddy Darragh.

The resultant 44 points both sealed Darren's stableford super-show and means he's now playing off 11, which is unlikely to trouble him unduly if this performance is any sort of accurate indicator.
