Monica Tillotson & Bendra Byrne (Gerrards Cross GC), with Maura Spencer (President)
The Summer Greensomes final between Monica Tillotson and Brenda Byrne from Gerrards Cross GC and Sue Cooke and Amy Watters from Harleyford GC took place on a wet mild autumn day at Ellesborough GC on 14 October 2024. It had been raining all morning but by the time we went out to the 1st Tee the rain had stopped.
Sue and Amy were giving 5 shots and it was nip and tuck all the way to the 16th where there was never more than 1 hole between the players. Monica and Brenda then went 2 up on the 16th par 3 hole and successfully closed out the match on the 17th hole.
The closely contested match was played in good spirit and thanks go to Maura Spencer (County President) for braving the cold along with Gill Redman who joined the match at the 9th hole to support the ladies to the end.
Thanks also go to Rosemary de Lacy for acting as referee.
The Players and officials sat down to a welcome tea with Victoria Sponge Cake,
followed by the presentation of the prizes and cup to the winners by Maura Spencer (County President).
Thanks go to the staff of Ellesborough GC for hosting the final and their generous hospitality.
