After a strange season with Covid-19 knocking out three of our majors we managed to complete the season with our final major – The Champions of Champions at The Manor , Castle Combe.

Unfortunately the club limited our tee slots to four which meant that it was a smaller field than normal.

As usual there were two competitions. A stroke play for those who have previously won a Major and a Stableford comp for anyone else.

The course was in good condition and the greens were fast and firm. The weather was nice apart from a heavy shower that took everyone by surprise. The food was its usual good standard.

The ones who were able to play had a good day if not necessarily a good round.

The conditions seemed to suit Bryan Balson as he took back to back victories with a comfortable 3 shot lead.

There were no guests due to the limited numbers.

Our next event was meant to be the International Cup in November but Covid-019 struck again and it was called off.

We all look forward to seeing everyone again in 2021.
