The weather has caused significant disruption to upcoming and scheduled fixtures, so there will be an update to the fixture calendar once the weather clears up and normal play can resume.
On Tuesday 28th, the competition was a Single Stableford event. In the men's competition, Bailey Hayward emerged as the winner with 37 points, edging out Pascal Neunreuther on a countback. Pascal, who finished as runner-up, played a solid round as well. In the ladies' competition, Pam Harrison claimed victory with a score of 27 points, while Di Chard finished as the runner-up with 26 points. Peter Lindsay earned a 2-shot win on the 9th hole, and Brock Smith was the winner of the Nearest to the Pin competition on the 9th hole.
The competition on Wednesday 29th was also a Single Stableford event, but only the front 9 holes were played due to the weather. In the ladies' competition, Jenny Hounsell took the win with 19 points, while Lyn Muller was the runner-up with 16 points, winning on a countback over third-place finisher Pauline Redpath. The Nearest to the Pin awards on Wednesday went to Di Chard and Pauline Redpath on the 2nd hole, and Jenny Hounsell and Pauline Redpath on the 6th hole.
Unfortunately, the rain persisted, and the course was closed for the rest of the week. Proserpine has been luckier than those to the north of us, but for now, everybody simply has to wait for the weather to improve and the course to dry out before resuming normal play.
