A stunning late winter’s day dawned for the August Monthly Medal competition at Northbridge Golf Club. A steady westerly was enough to give the players something to ponder as did the greens, shaved thin for the occasion and dried out by the wind to be Augusta-like in their speed. As always, any score close to handicap would be a good one. And as is often the case in a stroke event, there are a few who blow out one or two holes and have to retire early from the competition. In all, seven of the Shore squad returned scores. Oliver Arnold continued his blistering run of form. The handicapper sliced a huge five strokes off after last week’s effort and, as if to thumb his nose, he shot seven under his new handicap to take out the C Grade medal at a canter. TK Kennedy and Cameron Newton played excellent rounds to come in close to handicap, earning a minor prize each for their efforts. And, Luke Robson snuck into the tail end of the prize list as well, after a steady six over performance, proving how tough the conditions were.
