New greens come into play at Outlane

The new 7th and 8th greens at Outlane Golf Club came into play for the first time during their recent April medal.

Whilst the new surfaces looked in beautiful condition the 247 yard par 3 eighth, which is stroke 1, proved to be tough as the average score of 5.12 told the tale. However, junior player Bryn Jenkinson is the first to birdie it as his drive reached the green for him to sink his putt!!

Paul Walker won the first division medal with a 65 followed by Martin Jackson and Jarrad Hazelden with a 66 although the latter could count himself unlucky when his drive on the 17th finished in a tree and he walked off with a 7 when a par 4 would have won him the competition.

The second division had ex-Derbyshire cricketer Shaukat Dar knocking up a blistering 63 nett with Paul Anderson and junior player Matthew Clark registering a 67 nett score.
