Freshwater Bay Golf Club Mens Championship

Nat Riddett secured his maiden Freshwater Bay Men's Championship with some fine golf played over the two days. His 2 under par round of 67 on the Saturday was all the more remarkable as he was 3 over par after the 1st 2 holes. This was enough to give him a 5 shot lead over Steven Cooke (72) and one further adrift were the current holder Brandon Thompson and 4 time winner Derek Wright.

Nat's nett 64 was also good enough to be leading the handicap event at the halfway stage, with only 2 other people (Steven Cooke, 66 and Jim Whitehead, 67) managing to play under their handicap.

On the Sunday, in slightly easier conditions, Derek secured 3rd place with a 72 to give him a total of 145. Brandon shot a level par 69, to secure 2nd place (142), and Nat scored a consistent 72 to give himself a 3 shot winning margin.

In the Afton Trophy (handicap event) Nat's score of 133 was just good enough for the trophy, with Jim Whitehead in 2nd after scoring to consecutive 67s for 134. Jim was also the clear winner in the A T Smith (Over 60s), winning by 8 from Richard Couse. The Sunday Tankard winner was Russell Macgregor who improved by 10 on his Saturday score to shoot a 64.
