Despite the less than ideal conditions, 28 brave competitors still made it out for the fourth round of the social club trophy.

Michael Sloan was the winner with a clinical 39 stableford points.

Sloan got off to a slow start but after a fourth hole mental reset got things going, finishing with an eagle and two birdies from the next 14 holes.

Runner-up was Chris Roberts with 38 points and the bronze on countback went to Gary Bow, who hit the ball solidly for his 38.

Nearest-the-pin winners were John Gale on the third, Michael Sloan on the eighth and Bill Leviston on the 13th.

Next week’s golf moves to Saturday, September 21, with a par event being contested.

On office duty will be Jeremy Ezard and in the bar, William Le Cerf.
