Well played Chris!!

Men’s Double Roll Up

The double weekend roll ups continue to capture the imagination of the members of Cleobury with a fine field taking on the fantastic spring conditions. The relatively low scoring was down to the green staff who double cut the greens making them lightening quick and catching many off guard. Andy Greenhalgh (36) and Mark Shorter (37) finished fourth and third respectfully. The challenge for the top spot was between to great friends in Bob Lucas and John Westley. However John with a stunning finish managed to seal top spot by a single point finishing on 39 points to Bobs 38 points.

John has this to say after his victory ‘it was a great contest between Bob and myself, very nip and tuck but a great laugh with some good banter between the two of us, I am now looking forward to a busy season here at Cleobury’.

Men’s Double Roll Up Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th January 2012

The men’s double roll up at Cleobury Mortimer Golf Club was once again hugely successful with over 60 players battling the arctic conditions. After day one only two players managed to shoot under their handicaps Jason Sunderland with 37 poins and Mark Thompson with 38 points. Day two was just as tough with the ground not thawing out until mid morning and this time only Tony Willets managed to shoot under his handicap with 38 points to match Marks score. However due to the back count Mark came out on top to secure his first victory of 2012 he had this to say ‘I didn’t feel as though I was playing particularly well I was just scoring on every hole to keep the momentum going, starting 2012 with a victory is fantastic and I hope it is the first of many’.

The double roll up at Cleobury was once again a massive success with 68 competitors over the two days. Players can play on either day with the top four scores over the two days taking the prize fund. After day one Tom Wright was leading the way with 37 points however because of the tough weather conditions higher scores were expected on day two. And they did not disappoint with both Rich Smith and Martin Bower shooting 39 points to take third and second place. Steve Lau however finished off 2011 in spectacular fashion playing off a hanidcap of 12 he shot a gross 73 to record a huge 46 points. Steve who has had a great year winning many competitions had this to say ‘Shooting 46 points in December is pretty much unheard of, but it was just one of those days! Everything just went in, this tops off a great year. My goal for 2012 is to become a single figure golfer’. 

With scores like this in winter conditions everyone at CMGC is convinced this will happen! Best of luck Steve.
