The Bryants and the Smiths make a Winning Team

It’s Wednesday morning as I write this and the rain is falling, which is just at the right time to help the course as the irrigation work continues.

I was on my golfing travels last week. First of all playing in the PGA Seniors at Moor Park in Hertfordshire. It’s a 54 hole event with approx 250 players taking part and the top 50 and ties make it through to the final round. Alas I missed out by 5 shots – I just struggled a little with a one or two errant shots and the treacherously quick greens.

It was then up to Edinburgh to meet up with some university friends and play at the lovely Archerfield golf courses. What a treat for a couple of days and great fun.

The men’s Medal 2 results from last weekend will be announced at TNC on Thursday so I’ll include those in next week’s missive.
