Lanyon bogey secures shield

GREETED by slightly cooler conditions on Saturday, 11 players participated in the Boort annual Captain versus President match play event. 
In the individual stableford results, Kevin Linehan made light of the firm conditions to record an impressive 40 points and finish two clear of Robert Johnston. 
Tied for third were Shayne Morris and Peter Eicher. 
Single nearest the pin prizes went to Damien Lanyon, Andrew Kane, Karen Allison and Natham Wright. 
In an unprecedented event on the 1st hole, Peter Eicher and Stuart Tweddle not only knocked their tee shots onto the sand to earn a ball but they also holed their putts for birdies to pick up another. 
The pair also tied each other for the nearest the pin voucher after two shots.
In the Captain versus President shield, it all came down to the last hole between the two leaders, with Damien Lanyon’s hard-fought bogey enough to hold onto to his slender lead and defeat Andrew Kane and retain the shield 3-2. 
This weekend will see a stroke event on the Saturday at 12.30pm, with the weekend pennant competition on Sunday at Wycheproof.
Tarnagulla
Tarnagulla turned on another beautiful sunny morning and such a good crowd came along for the Par Three Par-Tee. 
The course was immaculate, and the sands had been preened so our putts ran true. 
The winner for the women was Robyn Ravenhall with Sharon Coghill as runner up, for the men the winner was Gary Harwood while Gary Flewkerbarker was runner up. Nearest the pin was Peter Ravenhall. Tarnagulla’S next event is the Lucky Five on June 28. with tee-off at 9.30am. This is the event where you play all nine holes, but, at morning tea, someone selects five numbers and those numbers are the five holes we count your score on.  
Wedderburn 
Wedderburn golf had eight players out on the green on Saturday. 
Winner of the day was Tony Holt with 39 points, G. Smith was runner-up with 38 points. P. Sanderson received best 2nd on the 2nd and nearest to the pin was the 13th hole.
