SENIORS SUCCESS.
The Gowran Park Seniors had a great win in Athy Golf Club on Monday 14th Sept in the inaugural contest
for the Seniors Challenge Cup between the two clubs.
This competition which will become an annual event was played in a Ryder Cup style format involving 6
singles matches, 3 fourballs and 3 foursomes in both Ladies and Gents, as well as mixed fourballs and
foursomes.
On a course that was in immaculate condition, Athy built up a lead of 7.5 to 4.5 points after the singles
matches. However Gowran Park proved stronger in the doubles events and eventually won the last match
on the 17th to seal victory by 13 points to 11.
The organisers from both clubs must be commended for staging this event and all players are now looking
forward to next years renewal.
