The course was beautifully presented even though the fairways were very dry and hard. However the greens were superb and very true albeit it was thought by some that the Green keeper had set some fiendish pin positions!

Some had no problems with the run or bouncing balls however - Gill Thorpe of Leamington & County Golf Club had an eagle on the par five 18th. A smiling Gill commented "The ball just bounced into the hole on the third shot!"
