Bobby Large finished in third place with rounds of 73 + 74 = 147.
There were 21 players of three handicap or better in a field of 53 players.
Men’s Captain, Andy Simpson, presented the trophy to Tom and prizes to the runners-up. He said: “It was a fabulous weekend of golf. Well done to all the players and volunteers involved in the competition, and many thanks to
Chris Weir, Asa English and the team for presenting the course so well in view of the current extreme weather.”
Two Rothley Park members recently celebrated shooting a hole-in-one: Maz Sharpe - on the tricky Par 3 - 7th Hole at Rothley Park, and Alan Dorn - his first Hole in One in 25 years of playing golf.
