We have lots of results to catch up on this week. Plus there is one final space available in the Open sweepstake. First to reply will be able to have that one. I’ll be emailing out who has which players tomorrow.

Klaxon
For your information, the klaxon situated near the 14th green is currently not working. It is something Greens have looked into and haven’t yet managed to find a robust fix for. We’ll keep you posted.
HGC Pro Am
Temperature in the 30s and tricky pin positions greeted the competitiors of the 2025 HGC Pro Am. The course was immaculate.
The winning team were Sally Budd, Jo Egerton, Joanne Bryant and their pro John Cheetham with a score of 126 (14 under par). In second place following a card play off were Xavier Brooke, Gary Beal, John Dunn and their pro Steve Croman with 129.
The winning pro, for the third consecutive year, was Jason Dransfield from Heswall GC with a one under par round of 69. There was then a three way tie for runners up spot with level par and those players were Adam Wilson, Matt Tottey and Alistair Waddell.
Simon Greenhalgh won the nearest the pin on the 4th, Steve Smith won the nearest the pin on the 11th and Tracey Thompson won the nearest the line on the 15th hole.
Thanks to everyone for supporting the event and making it such a memorable day.
