STRONG wind and a rare drop of rain greeted captain’s day at Lyme Regis Golf Club.

However, this did not deter a wonderful turnout as captain Lee Caddy, ably assisted by Duncan Driver and Melissa McMahon, served up a barbecue and half-time drinks.

The day was about having fun and raising money for the captain’s charity – The Fortuneswell Cancer Trust at Dorset County Hospital.

With more than £500 raised in the raffle, the total so far this year is more than £10,000.

Les Bounds was the best golfer on the day with a sparkling round – scoring 38 points with two steady halves, followed by Richard Emm, who scored a five-point birdie on 14 to just pip Julian Cox on countback, both with 37.

Gilly Madill and Jenny Scott were the top ladies with 34 and 33 points respectively.

The juniors also took part in a separate event which was won by Cam Vincent with Casey Gibbons as runner-up.

In their putting competition, Michelle Lee triumphed.

The ladies played their 36-hole competition and McMahon was the runaway winner as she carded a gross 149 in two rounds that were sprinkled with birdies.

Di Harris finished a blistering second with 175 while Judith Page held on to take a very worthy third place on 180.

Jane Andrews and Cyndy Mudford battled it out for the best nett score with Andrews taking first on countback in a very hard fought contest, both scoring 146.

Lizzie Linnert put in a sterling performance to finish third, one shot behind.

In the Morning Cup, Geraldine Wickes was the shining star with a nett 65, as she accelerated her score with a glittering back nine.

Jane Andrews just beat McMahon to second place on countback, both with 71.
