The Professionals prize was won by European Tour player and Suffolk raider, Robin Mann from Southwold GC with a score of 77 and in conjuction with his partner Paul Boot also won the Pro/Am prize.

January Stableford
The season's opener, The January Stableford, was contested by a large field on Sunday. In cold, tricky conditions but with the course playing exceptionally well, few managed to beat the course. The shining lights on the day were Peter Furlong with 37 points, Billy Humphreys with 38 points and leading the pack Matthew Palmer with a magnificent 39 points.


Drinks all round

DRINKS ALL ROUND

Bar Manager, John Garrod, struck a sweet shot on the 7th which found its way into the hole to record his first hole-in-one. Playing partners Tim Starbuck & Steve Greatrex shared his delight both on the course and afterwards in the Bar.
