Club Championship Weekend

 Club Championship Weekend

The start of Round 1 

July 6th and 7th was the Club Championship - two rounds of golf - medal and with trophies for the best gross and best nett scores.


The Saturday was blustery; a strong wind and a shower or two, in contrast Sunday was sunny and so much quieter in terms of the wind.



There were 11 ladies able to play in the competition.

The format is a medal and is the only competition at Cape where you can't pick up after 10 shots - that was a challenge in Saturday's conditions.

However everyone battled through and Fiona came out on top after Round 1 with the best gross score of 89. Hilary was second with 90, Fran was in third with 96 and Claire 4th with a 98.

Two drives on the 18th! Couldn't have done that if we tried!


On the Sunday we went out in reverse order with 9 ladies playing. 

The final group was Fiona, Hils and Fran.

Fi, Hils and Fran on the final hole!

Hilary posted a gross 85 in that second round, Fran a 90, Fiona 92 and Claire an 87!

This resulted in a win for Hilary, our Club Champion for 2024 with a combined score of 175.

Fiona won the best nett competition with 143 ...

Claire was our second best gross score winner with a total of 185.

I for one lost countless balls, I was reassured to find that others had also ended up taking 5 (or more!!) off the tee at various points!

I think we all deserved a medal for completing that first round!

Many thanks to Di for organising and processing the cards and to Lyn for doing the presentation.

All our winners!

Well played everyone!
