THE third round of the Grant and Dianne Perryman Short course yellow marker trophy was played in cool conditions for the 23 women at the Blue Lake Golf Club last week.
Some greens underwater the previous couple of days caused the cancellation of the SE District Cudmore Bowl, which will be rescheduled for later in the year.
The course held up well for the stroke competition, albeit a little heavy underfoot.
The scratch rating was 60 and the adjusted handicap range was 1-17 for Division 1 and 18-34 for Division 2.
The competition sponsors were Mark and J’Ami Lane from the RSL Bistro, with the winners receiving the sports award vouchers.
The minor placings received Blue Lake Golf Club vouchers.
