Gents Matchplay Finals \u2013 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Gents A, B & C Grade Matchplay Finals were held in testing wet conditions, delivering some outstanding golf and sportsmanship across all grades.<\/p>\n

A Grade Final<\/strong><\/p>\n

The A Grade final featured a compelling matchup between 4th seed Ben Dowling and 10th seed Matt Simmons. In what proved to be a tightly contested battle, Ben gained momentum after a superb approach to 12 feet on the 8th hole (17th overall), which he converted for birdie. This marked the beginning of a dominant stretch, with further birdies on holes 10, 11, and 12 (19, 20, and 21). When Matt was unable to convert his par putt on the 13th (22nd hole), Ben claimed victory and secured his first A Grade Matchplay title. The match was played in excellent spirit, with both players showing mutual encouragement and respect throughout.<\/p>\n

B Grade Final<\/strong><\/p>\n

The B Grade title was contested between top qualifier Troy Redell and 14th seed Geoff Lavin. Troy entered the final in strong form, having defeated his semi-final opponent 8 & 7. Geoff had also impressed, defeating the 7th seed 2 & 1 in his semi-final. In a hard-fought final, Geoff made Troy earn every hole, but Troy ultimately prevailed, completing a remarkable double by adding the Matchplay title to his B Grade Stroke Play Championship win. (tied)<\/p>\n

C Grade Final<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the C Grade final, Barry Miller faced Frank Keane. Barry had reached the final after a tense semi-final that required extra holes, securing victory on the 19th. Frank earned his place in the final by defeating the top seed in his semi-final. In the championship match, Barry delivered a composed performance to claim the title with a 3 & 2 win.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to all players who participated in this Honour Board Event, and in particular to our 2025 Gents Matchplay Champions on their well-earned victories.<\/p>\n
