Pat Doyle Foursomes Championship
Last weekend saw the Pat Doyle Foursomes championship take place over 36 holes. This is always a challenge as the format will benefit the most consistant golfers or those that make the least mistakes.
This year's winners with a fantastic score considering the conditions were Mike Prince and Dennis Lea with a nett 138. Well done guys as you had to take the lead from the morning round 66 and withhold the challenge of Steve Lockert and Mark King who were joint second with Mark White and Richard Pearce on 143.
