Golf Report

Saturday 23 November 2024

Summer has truly arrived, with warm conditions greeting our golfers at Northbridge Golf Club. A rise in temperature was met with a rise in points for our six players competing in the members competition. Harrison Graetz and Robert Kerr led the way with 40 points, which was enough to earn Harrison the win in B Grade and Robert 2nd place in C Grade for the day.

Christian Liu birdied the 18th hole to finish with an impressive score of 38 points and 2nd place in A Grade. Other scores were Kaya Macpherson with 31 points, Lachlan Kwan with 28 points and Barron Setsu with 24 points.

The big event of the day, however, was our Matchplay team, who were playing host to St Joseph’s College. This would be a clash of the top two teams on the leaderboard after five rounds. Our team for the day was Zach France, Thomas Gocher, Archie Frewin and Matthew Goddard. All four of our players would give their opponents shots in their matches.

After losing his first match of the season, Zach has been in fantastic form and was able to continue that in his match this week. He was able to get ahead early in his match and whilst he didn’t run away with it, he would stay in control throughout to edge out a 2up victory.

Undefeated coming into this round, Thomas would have a much tougher day as his opponent played some fantastic golf to defeat him 6&4.

Also undefeated this season, Archie and Matthew would both continue their fantastic form for comfortable victories, winning 5&4 and 3&1 respectively.

A fantastic result for our team, winning the day 3-1 and taking a 5-point lead on the table into Term 1.
