Dorset County Golf Union
Inter-Club Mixed Foursomes
Played at Rushmore GC on Sunday 5 August 2007.
On the hottest day of the year so far the Inter-Club Mixed foursomes got under way at Rushmore GC. With a moderate entry from the clubs around the county the event is played in two sections Scratch and Handicap. First out were the scratch pairings and in first were Steve Sanger and Lorraine Richardson from Ashley Wood with a respectable 81 having met with the greens which were difficult to read and fast to putt on. Some time later Calvin Drage and Jordan Mabb from Weymouth GC came in equalling the 81 of the Ashley Wood pair but with a better back nine total so they looked good with just three pairs to go but in this group were reigning champions for the past two years Josh Vincent and Kerry-Ann Haskell from Broadstone GC, Josh Vincent & Kerry-Ann Haskellthe pair looked tense and somewhat deflated as they strode of the eighteenth green thinking they had blown it coming home with a 78 but to their surprise and delight they retained the trophy for a third year running. Well done to them both.
