Another lovely day for Golf and a super day for Burghley Park GC.
It is no mean feat to match Peterborough Milton on their course. At the beginning of May we had shared the points in a very good match at Burghley, one where Keith Duff and I had managed to clutch defeat from the jaws of victory, losing on the last. Today, however, a very enjoyable half in our match contributed to a 4 1/2 to 3 1/2 victory.
Excellent wins from Pip K and Mike B, Richard C and Dave L, and Mick Marriott and Neil Chedd put us on the way and a win in the final group from the very competitive Tim Chapman and Mark Crampton sealed the overall win.
But as ever it is not about the final result. Geoff Dyson, proving to be an excellent host, and his partner Phil Clark were excellent adversaries. Michael Earl had his usual solid game and steered us through some tricky holes with super shots to the greens - and he had no luck, whereas Geoff and Phil both holed from off the green. Geoff said it was the nicest match they had had this year, played in the best spirit.
Both sides appeared to have had a good day not least Sut Panchi, for PM, playing off 30. In May he had contributed to a 5 and 4 win over Richard and Pip, here at Peterborough it was a 6 and 4 win over Keith and David. Obviously, with a Net 59, a man to be avoided! Well played Sut.
Onward across The Fens to Ramsey.
