December Medal


Winner of the December Medal courtesy of a fine nett 69 was Kenny Farmer. After a steady start, a disastrous 9 at the tricky par 5 6th hole looked to have ended his hopes of glory prematurely, however, a run of pars repaired some of the damage and he reached the turn in 44. A more consistent inward half, also of 44, was good enough to give Farmer the victory by a single shot from Ian Ritchie and Ian Ross. Ritchie produced a steady round of 79 for his nett 70, made up of halves of 42 and a storming inward 37. Ross also did his best work on the back nine, with an excellent inward half of 40 paired with an outward 41 to give him his nett 70. Lowest gross score of the day was courtesy of Lee Parnell who carded an excellent round of 76 which included a solitary birdie at the 3rd hole.
