On an occasionally blustery but thankfully dry day, Stuart White of Girvan returned an excellent 68 to claim the Scratch trophy in the face of stiff opposition. In the Handicap section it was a closely fought battle too with Carrick Speakers Captain, Les Newlands, with a net 62, only just prevailing over Jim Brown from Girvan and Ian McKenzie of the Saxone club from Annanhill. All sixty-four competitors had a very enjoyable day, enhanced greatly by the excellent condition of Girvan golf course with the greens being of a particularly high standard; full credit for this must go to the green-keeping staff. Carrick Speakers Golf Club would like to thank all sponsors, especially South Ayrshire Council for the courtesy of the course and Carrick Sports Club in Maybole for their generous donation. Thanks, too, to the staff of the 19th Hole and the starter for their help in making the day a success.
