A very, very disappointing result. It will be a real struggle to win the league now. Parkstone was in very good condition and the weather was great but they played better than we did. John Gordon had an interesting introduction to top seniors’ golf when he birdied the first three holes only to go one down after four because his opponent birdied the first four. However he birdied the ninth to even things up and eventually prevailed. David Lock seemed to be cruising along nicely at three up but drifted backwards over the last few holes. David Topp was one up after twelve but the redoubtable Bernard Yates birdied both thirteen and fourteen to take control. One bright spot was the return of Campbell Boal with a good win over the ex world squash champion.
Next up is the match against Kent so I hope we do better
