The Huddersfield Golf Club Scratch Team did themselves proud by finishing fourth in the Yorkshire Team Championship at Hallamshire Golf Club on Wednesday.
Although they finished 28 strokes adrift of winners, Wike Ridge, it firmly establishes the club as one of the strongest in the county. And had it not been for a relatively disappointing afternoon performance, where the four man team scored six more than their morning round, it could easily have been second or third place for the HHDUGC Scratch League champions.
On a very difficult day for scoring Fixby were third at the halfway stage, just seven behind the Leeds Golf Centre side, but were one of only five teams (out of 18) not to better their first round tally as the weather eased slightly. Seasoned campaigner Charles Webb fired their lowest 36-hole total with rounds of 74 and 77 - only four shots off the best mark of the day set by Andy Lockwood from Hessle whose team finished as runners-up.
Plus handicappers Richard Broadley and Andrew Shaw posted returns of 154 and 155 respectively whilst the late stand-in for Brad Tupman, Aaron Schnacke, fired back-to-back rounds of 83.
Meanwhile West End retained their first division status by just three strokes as they finished in tenth spot. Union regulars Sam Bridges and Frank Greaves both returned admirable totals of 153.
Full Scores.
