pic JAL Brown 2010SIXTY intrepid golfers took to the fairways on Sunday at Dunskey to compete for the prestigious JAL Brown Trophy. Weather conditions were testing to say the least, with a howling wind making life extremely difficult for many players. (Sometimes the flag flies horizontally here - but on Sunday it was almost the flag pole!!)
Having said that, some scores, particularly in the treacherous afternoon round, were excellent and our congratulations go to all those who finished both rounds!
Results as follows:
Scratch:
M Grunwell 76 + 70 = 146
K McClung 74 + 74 = 148
B Scott 79 + 71 = 150
W Crick 80 + 72 = 152
C Heuchan 79 + 73 = 152
Handicap:
