Looking Back on Past Winners ..2016 tour

2016 Winner Dermot on 131 gross nett 106

After all rounds have been played leader is Dermot with a score of 131 followed by Kevin on 130 and Frank on 123. Since a players 2 worst nine hole scores were deducted from their total at the end of the week Dermot had 25 deducted giving him 106 while Kevin had 29 deducted giving him 101 Team points are still to play for in the Saturday. Points for the Saturday scramble will be as follows…7 for a win, 4 for a second and 3 for third with 2 for 4th. All still to play for.
In the singles Dermot played superb golf all week and consistently delivered 4 great rounds. The most remarkable was the round of 37 points in a tough El Chapperal course.Frank could not match this pace although he was in contention up to the final day. Kevin played very consistently and was narrowly pipped for first place when his two worst rounds of 9 were deducted. Dermot deducting 25 while Kevin deducted29. All the games were great fun and hopefully will be repeated next year in the 2017 tour.
In the Team Matchplay there are two teams on 6 points and one on 8 and one on 12 with a max of 7 points to be earned on Saturday in the scramble.

Kevin 2Kevin: HC: 22

Our President and treasurer!!.. Had a great 2016 on the greens and is still the dark horse for this year.Playing out of Journalists G.S. .Short but very consistent of the tee handicap needs scrutiny….and lethal from 50 yards. One to be watched good bunker player..and will feature at some stage of the competition.

Terry:HC: 5

Playing out of Dundalk G.C. and a very accomplished all round player. This year greatly distracted with the arrival of a new grandchild so will be suffering a little from night feeds and bottle rash!!…Coach to the Dundalk Junior Cup Golf team in 2015… so will be available for tips if necessary. Will be favorite again for the competition  but will be distracted by all thats going on on the home front… Again a  strong contender to make the presentation speech!!

Joe

JoeJoe: HC: 20

Playing out of Ardee G.C. and having no wedding stress this year makes him an outside bet!. Playing consistently off the tee and solid around the green. If putting well then will be in form for a session!!

Frank

FrankFrank:HC: 13

 Has had extensive practice at home and abroad in 2018 preparing for this years tour and is a favourite, but not necessarily on the golf course…time will tell…Playing out of Mallow G.C. A keen competitor and strong Iron player. Very experienced in club and inter club competition. Will be one to watch if on his game… Still drives (a Buggy) better than Billy.

Gerard

Gerard

Gerard:  HC: 26

Now that the injuries of 2018 are finally behind him and Frank Junior is behaving well Gerry has had the winter to do some intensive training and is raring to go.  Playing out of Enniscorthy G.C. Another who is straight and true off the tee. Can be very determined when necessary and assuming Dundalk FC are not looking for a goalkeeper,  will be a strong competitor . Will not waste many putts, but recovered from injury  will be keen to impress.

Vinnie

Vinnie HC : 20

Playing out of Courtown Golf Club and carrying a mean lob wedge Vinnie could be this year’s dark horse. Plays well off the tee and can sing a merry tune. If the putts roll in and the endurance holds up.. Vinnie will be one to watch.
