ANOTHER sunny day saw another Greenock Golf Club member achieve the ultimate goal of a hole-in-one.
This time it came at the 205-yard Helter Skelter 10th hole and it was John McCafferty who achieved it.
Welcome to the 'Hole-in-One Club' John.
This is a hole that most people consider it an achievement to get on the green never mind hole it from the tee.
There were a fair number of the 150 members who played below their handicap with all three sections being won with 39 point.
Results - Section 1: 1st, Hugh Lyden 39pts; 2nd, Robin E Terrey 38pts; 3rd, John Burns 37pts BIH.
Section 2: 1st, James Orr 29pts; 2nd, Mark Bowie 38pts BIH; 3rd, Graham Knox 38pts BIH.
Section 3: 1st, Cameron Shaw 39pts; 2nd, Euan McLaughlin 38pts BIH; 3rd Adam Brown 38pts.
Last Saturday players were again blessed with a fair day with only a slight touch of rain for the Provost Trophy qualifier.
As the name suggests this is a trophy put up by the provost many years ago and a charity which Greenock Golf Club are pleased to support.
Yet again there was another hole-in-one - the club's third in eight days!
Congratulations go this time to David Docherty.
With Covid restrictions lifted, David was able to respect the time old tradition of putting up a bottle of whisky. Well done Davy.
Remember not that long ago when a 62 would be the winning score for the Provost qualifier.
This weekend 62 didn't even guarantee qualification, with one team on 62 missing out on a place in the match play.
Leading the qualifiers were: 1st, Kieran Munro and Ryan Lynch 55; 2nd, Alan Rodgers and Jim Duncan 58; 3rd, Stuart Gallacher and Hugh Lyden 59;
4th, Alan Crighton and Ronald McCallum 60 BIH.
There were a total of 196 taking part in the qualifier.
