Closely “Faught” at Emerald

On Wednesday, 18th October the Links Golf Society took four groups to Ban Chang to play a stableford event on the Emerald course which was in surprisingly good condition after the recent storms. Fairways were well grassed and greens were consistent if only moderately paced. An empty course gave a feeling of millionaires golf and progress was swift throughout. Scores were tight with a USA duo contesting the top place.
However in fourth place was Len Jones with 37 points, whilst Tony Browne and Tommy Marshall went to countback to decide second and third on 38 points, The runner-up honour went to the latter.
The winner, playing off his handicap of five, was Mark Faught with 39 points. Consolation prizes went to John Harrison for his front nine score of nineteen and Maurice Roberts and Bob Watson for their shared back nine performance of 19.

Best Front Nine ( non winners)…..John Harrison..19 pts

Best Back Nine ( non winners)…..Bob Watson and Maurice Roberts shared…19 pts each.
