TThe 115th meeting of TIGS, 2nd of the season, was held at Worksop Golf Club (Nott’s) on Wednesday 21st April 2010. The weather was fantastic with lots of sunshine as we have become accustomed on TIGS golfing days.

The course was in good nick although the greens were quite slow. Worksop allowed us to play from the white tees, which is not the norm for TIGS, but I turned out to be the right decision as the yellow tees were quite far forward.

TIGS had quite a few firsts, 1 it was the 1st time TIGS had visited Worksop Golf Club, 2nd it was the 1st time the TIGS new Captain’s drive went out of bounds, 3rd 1st time a member of 20 odd years has won a trophy.

22 members and 6 guests competed for The Lionel Ramus Trophy. The winner with a superb score of 38 points was Peter Austin. 2nd was returning bandit Greg Hammond with a good score of 37 points, Steve Wyatt was 3rd on a respectable 35 points.

Pete will have his handicap reduced from 14 to 11 .Greg’s handicap will be 3 shots from 19 to 16(ha ha I’ll play you for a bluie next time).

The winning visitor was Steve Haigh`s guest Richard Bradbury with a fantastic score of 38 points.

The better ball team prize was won by messes Harris, Haigh, Bradbury and Harris with 95 points.

Nearest the pin prizes were won by Gary Hardy (5th hole) and Steve Haigh (18th hole) same old faces.

Nearest the pin in 2 was won by OUR Captain’s guest Kevin Field (11th hole)
