Another stableford competition was held on May 22 at the Al Badia Golf Club with Greg Donaghy taking over the winner’s mantle, crowned as the overall winner who carded a total of 40 points.
Greg got off to a slow start at the beginning of his round dropping 3 points in his first two holes but then soon picked up the pace with birdies on the hole 8 and 12 for 4 points each and steadily using his shots to collect 3 points on the hole 2, 4, 16 and 18.

Another solid performance from the Club Champion, Brett Armstrong proved himself best again carding a total score of 37 points. Adding to his victory in this division was his longest drive shot in hole 9. Coming as a runner up was Chet Riley, who scored two points behind Brett. Robert David’s fantastic run on the back 9 by scoring 4 points in hole 13 and keeping this momentum in the next 3 holes, was the key for his success in the B Division with a total score of 39.
Francesco Motka settled as a runner up in B division with 37 points.
Not to be outshone, Ian Fraser showed his outstanding performance by winning nearest the pin in hole 3 and straightest drive in hole 1. While Mike Groves won nearest the pin in hole 11 with an 8 feet close to the pin.
