Half Way Through.


TGS Season 5 resumes after a 7 week Summer break with a first time tour visit to Ruddington Grange, this Sunday, 23rd August, teeing off from 2.30.

With a tough 5 from 8 scores qualifying for the end of season grand prize, this 5th event could see the first challengers post a target.

In the box seat is TGS’ Mr Consistent, Richard Daft – A weekend score of around 36 points would accompany his 36, 34, 34 and 31 very nicely and leave 3 further rounds to improve, with availability not an issue.

The best of the rest have potentially 2-3 good scores in the bank and will need some sharp shooting over the remaining fixtures.

A.T – 36, 29, 29 – averaging a game a day this year is sure to be competitive if the holiday schedule allows.

Horsey, 2006 Champion, can never be ruled out off a steady handicap and with a deadly short game. 37, 32, 30 is a steady opening.

2007 champ, Tuckers, may have peaked too early, opening rounds of 33, 33, 34 were followed up with a 20 point shocker at Bondhay – but 3 good scores in the bank.

Although not playing this weekend, Chubby has made a promising start, 36,33, 30 – but will need a strong finish to content but is capable of shooting low.

Ant Brown, Jay Brown, M.Hefter (Stats), McLoughlin and Frame all have a score in the mid to late 30’s posted but will need a full attendance quota with good golf to lift themselves into contention.

With prize money available for the top 3 players £50-£30-£20 it is still all to play for and there will still be plenty who are unmentioned who will fancy themselves as an outside chance – Meds!
