Not a great weekend for Greystones teams.
On Saturday, Colm Mulcahy and Eddie Lonergan and their Fitzgibbon Cup team played the away leg of Round 3 in Bray.
Collie Dunne & Steven Bourne were first out and came up short losing 2&1. Liam Moulton & Colm Mulcahy were third out and lost 3&2 however Chris Boylan & Rob Tierney gave the team a glimmer of hope with a great 5&3 win. The home leg of this match was played on Sunday morning. Peter Anderson & Toby Murphy were first out and were beaten on the seventeenth as were Jamie Anderson & David Kirby. The middle pair of William O’Riordan & Michael Joyce managed to grab a halved match, having been dormie two up ( no reflection on young William by the way ! ).
Earlier on Sunday morning Barry Massey’s and Karl Holmes’ charges took on Woodbrook in the first semi final of the Eamonn Darcy trophy.
David Byrne was first out in the singles, had 13 pars, 2 bogies and lost on the fifteenth … Shane O’Connor also lost on the fifteenth while Darren McCormack played great to win on the eighteenth. In the foursomes, Dylan Holmes & Chris Boylan lost on seventeen and Diarmaid MacGabhann & Alan Keane were all square playing the seventeenth when called in.
