Launceston Golf Club

AFTER what seems to be an age of rainfall, the Launceston golfers finally got back in action over the last couple of weeks.

Alan Creber said: “Glad to be back, bring on spring!”

Ladies’ Section

Winter Roll up Individual Stableford — January 28

FOURTEEN ladies entered the 14-hole competition in glorious sunshine.

The eventual winner Carole Hutchinson said: “If it had not been so wet underfoot it could have been spring with the birdsong and sunshine.”

Beth Ratcliffe added: “It was exhilarating to be out on the course especially as it was particularly warm for this time of year and the light was exceptional making the views even more spectacular. We were all reminded of the beautiful Cornish blue sky.”

1st C Hutchinson 25pts; 2nd W Collins 23pts (o/c); 3rd L Hicks 23pts; 4th B Ratcliffe 21pts
