The Autumn Handicap at Disley Golf Club took an unexpected turn this year, with the pairs competition swapped out for something more appropriate. The change came about as several club members were notably absent, off enjoying the scenic NC500 Birdies and Bogies Tour of Scotland. Their absence didn’t dampen the spirits at Disley, though, as those who turned up brought their A-game to make the day a memorable one.
- Winner: Len Potts stole the show with a stellar performance, racking up an impressive 38 points to claim the top spot. His steady play and sharp focus left the field trailing in his wake.
- Runner-Up: Pete Evens, ever the consistent contender, secured the runner-up position once again with a commendable 31 points. Pete’s knack for landing in the top spots is becoming the stuff of club legend, and whispers around the clubhouse suggest he’s got his sights set on snatching first place next time.
- Twos: The twos pot remained tantalizingly untouched, with no players managing to sink a two on the day. This means the pot rolls over to the next event, and word has it that Mike Oakes is already salivating ‘again’ at the prospect of the growing prize fund.
Congratulations to Len for his commanding victory and to Pete for yet another strong showing. The Disley faithful are already looking forward to the next event, where the twos pot promises to add even more excitement to the competition!
