GOLFER OF THE YEAR - Congratulations to Jim Callery who is the Mens' Golfer of the Year for 2022. Jim played in 21 order of merit competitions during the year and finished within the top places in several of the competitions he played. Pat Conroy ran Jim very close throughout the past few months and only lost out by 6 points at the finish. Ciaran Beirne climbed the ranks strongly in the latter stages but was disadvantaged by only playing 15 events.
Michael Simon was the winner of this year's King Cup played over the
weekend of the 24th/25th. Michael had 41 points, and second place went to Owen
Garvin with 39. Third-placed Ciaran Beirne also had 39.
In the competition played over the weekend of the 17th and 18th of September, the 3 top-placed players all had 44 points and their places were
decided on countback. First place went to Adam Daly, Gerry Carty came second
and Padraig O'Connell
was 3rd, with Gary Carty adding to his ever-growing collection of
gross prizes.
FIXTURES - The next few weekends will see our King Harmon qualifiers
take place. This is the 90th year of the competition. The King Harmon Cup is
the club's main Matchplay tournament and the cup itself has been competed for
within the club since 1932, having been donated at that time by Sir Cecil
Stafford King-Harmon of Rockingham House. It ranks alongside the Captains and
Presidents Prizes as one of the more prestigious prizes on offer during the
golfing year. Each Sunday will be played as a separate 18-hole Stableford
competition with the leading qualifiers going through to the matchplay rounds.
CLUB OUTING - We are hoping to relaunch the annual club outing with a
day's golf away in late October or November. More details to follow.
AGM DATES - The AGM of the Men's section will be held on Sunday, November 13th. The Ladies section will announce their AGM date
shortly. The overall Club AGM takes place on November 27th. Both meetings will
be at 5 pm on the respective dates in the clubhouse.
