Congratulations to Maurice & Harry Phelan, who today beat Brian & Tom Murray in a close run match to win the 2022 Father & Son Trophy. Brian & Tom were two down after six but had turned the match around by the tenth tee at which time, they were one up. The match remained tight however and Maurice & Harry fought back to win on the seventeenth, 2&1.
The Frank Talbot fourball trophy was also decided this afternoon. Veteran, Eugene Corrigan had teamed up with Pete Murray this year and they made it all the way, beating Paul Byrne & Philip Dempsey to win the final this afternoon. Eugene & Pete played well and, with the benefit of shots had their noses in front pretty much the whole way. Pete and Eugene were two up after thirteen and wins on fourteen and fifteen settled the match by a margin of 4&3.Congratulations to Eugene & Pete.
Last out this afternoon was our 2022 Glenavy final with Mary Hutch & Henry Gilbert taking on previous winners, Aideen & Barry O’Leary. This afternoon was a tightly contested affair with the match still delicately poised after fourteen with just one hole in it, in favour of Aideen & Barry. This match also went as far as the seventeenth with Aideen & Barry holding on to their slender lead to come out on top.
