INTERCLUBS - The first round victory of John McGuinn’s All Ireland Fourball team’s on Tuesday meant that Boyle knocked the big guns of Rosses Point out of 2 competitions in the space of 4 days. This match was a tighter affair ; by 9 o’clock that evening each side had won 2 games apiece so all was dependent on the final game in Boyle. Shane O’Dowd and Pat Brogan were all square with their opposites after 18 holes, so it was to be a “sudden death” finish, with the next pairing to win a hole deciding both the game and overall match outright. They each halved the 19,20th and 21st holes before Boyle finally won this game and the overall match on the 22nd. Congratulations again to all. Both our Pierce Purcell and All Ireland Fourball teams now take on Strandhill in their respective second rounds.
Paddy McLoughlin’s Seniors’ team came extremely close to making it 3 out of 3 for Boyle against Rosses Point in 1 week, but the “sudden death” finish went against Boyle this time, with the deciding game being won by Rosses Point on the 19th hole on their home turf. It could not have been any closer, but it was great to see a good performance in a grade the club has traditionally been weak in.
