Today saw the annual Gents Foursomes take place with 140 players teaming up in this alternate shot event. Thankfully the forecast weather didn’t eventuate with clear skies and a cool breeze greeting those putting their friendships to the ultimate test.
Defending Champions Matt Dowling and Gavin Chapman were looking to add to their already impressive tally of 9 time Foursomes Champions, spanning all the way back to their first title in 2005.
After the first 18 holes the defending champions had a narrow 2 shot buffer over perennial rivals Daniel Butler and Luke Simpson.
However proving to be a dark horse was the combination of Jarrod Mann and Michael Carruthers who also shot 78 in the morning round.after being 9 over through 12 holes.
What was promising to be a tight tussle ended up a runaway victory with the Mann and Carruthers shooting a fine round of 2 under 70 to finish with a 6 shot victory over the Defending Champions.
