Congratulations to junior member Cormac who had a great day winning through to the last 16 in the Scottish Men’s Amateur Championship and recording a “hole in one” in the process. This is where the previous experience of playing match play in the Bell Trophy and Scratch League plays as an advantage when it gets to the knockout stages. Such a shame these events are not happening this year. A special mention to Conner who is a team mate at Cormac’s home club who also made it through and the pressure will be on their opponents playing these juniors in the Men’s event. At Strathmore we have always said if your good enough your old enough and that’s why we have no age restrictions. Held a taster session today for Maya a granddaughter of one of our Gents members and she did very well. Quick learner who certainly seemed to enjoy the experience. Then off to Edzell to play the West Water 9 hole course with our own grandkids and daughter. Alana not only managed her first par but then went back to back with another one. Her roar of delight could probably be heard in Brechin. I had birdied 7, 8 and 9 so as I can’t remember (might be an age thing) birdieing 4 in a row went onto the 10th but my putt just slipped past. Golf is a game everyone can enjoy and having 3 generations out having fun is what it’s all about.
