Christmas came early for a handful of Lithgow golfers who dominated the placings in the weekend’s single stableford event. Once again there was a strong field of golfers who took to the fairways for one last hit out before Christmas.
It has been a magnificent couple of months for the club with big fields turning out each week and the board would like to wish all their members, Natasha Drury, bar staff, kitchen and green staff a Merry Christmas and thank them for their efforts during the year.
It was a special Saturday day for Dave Muir (43) who kept some of his best golf for the last days of the year.
Muir took out C grade with the great score of 43 points and he would like to thank Santa for his early Christmas present. Runner up was Graeme Osborne (22) who seems to enjoy a permanent spot in the C grade placings each week.
The winner of A grade was Geoff Thompson (9) who is another that has been consistent each week and can play well when he gets his radar working. He put two good nines together of 21 and 19 points for a score of 40 points.
