GAVIN ROCKS !
Thirty six points puts Gavin on top
JACK WILL BE SORELY MISSED DOWN AT THE FORT BAXTER LOCAL
GAVIN'S PAROLE BOARD LOOKED FAVOURABLY ON HIS GOLFING CAREER
Another pair of superb matches, whilst free-agent Gavin powered his way to a terrific 36 point win in the Stableford. Russ and Mike were sadly lacking form, but somehow Mike took the early lead and went two up against Con after two holes. Con was playing really well, but somehow Mike was scrambling a score and lead most of the way until the wheels came off from fourteen onwards. The most exciting hole in this match was the sixteenth, where Mike hit a great drive to within 15 feet but three putted, whilst Con made sandy par to go two up and win the match 3 & 1.
Tony and Russ were also neck-and-neck for most of the game, with Tony having the edge, but never leading by more than one until the fourteenth where he scored a 'spanish waiter'. That game went all the way to the last, where Russ hit double-bogie to lose by two.
Gavin continues to score well and is looking like an early favourite for the Stableford. A blob on the first put him under pressure, but with two shots on each of the next three holes, that pressure was eased and he chalked up a cool seven points. Con birdied the third for the second week in a row. A big turning point was the 12th. Somehow, Mike had forced his way into a three way tie with the two class players, but a par from Gavin heralded 10 points over three holes to put him well clear. Thirty six points with two blobs was a terrific performance, but Con's second blobless run in two weeks puts him level with Mike on the blobless league with 37 points, just a fearless drive over the ditch next week and he is up and running.
