RABBITS CAPTAIN COMES GOOD AFTER A BAD START

Outlane Rabbits Captain Ian Maxted won the October Medal second division but it did not look likely when he started with a 7... and he could even afford an 8 on the last hole to win such was his in-between holes!

Maxted's (pictured) 65 nett total would have been more remarkable if he had scored pars on the first (par four) and last hole (par five) but he was still 2 shots clear of second place Ian Charles and a further shot back was David Crowther.

The first division saw Stuart Hodgson edging a count back from David Knapton with 66 nett and junior player Bryn Jenkinson a shot further back with a 67 nett.

Ian Charles 84 -(17) = 67 nett
David Crowther 92 - (24) = 68 nett

The Strokeplay Championship 2010 has come to a very exciting conclusion after the October Medal results.

There was a tie for first place between Gary Atkins and Jarrad Hazelden and the rules of the competition was that upon a tie the 11th best score would be the deciding factor (there is a possible 15 rounds of medals and major competitions and players best 10 scores count for the title).

This meant Jarrad Hazelden was the winner with a 11th round score of 73 to pip the unfortunate Gary Atkins 75.

Strokeplay Championship Results (The 10 best rounds in total taken from a maximum of 15 rounds of golf):

Jarrad Hazelden = 697
Gary Atkins = 697
John Lawton = 702
Michael Thomas = 704
David Knapton = 704
Paul Anderson = 704
