We had a big field playing in last Saturday’s Stableford round, with 46 ladies taking part. Visitors from Belmont, Tuggerah Lakes, Killara, Wyong and Nelson Bay boosted the numbers, all enjoying our great course at Hawks Nest. However, it was the local players who dominated in this week’s “4 Pointers” highlights package, with Maxine Mitchell sinking a 20m putt for a birdie/4 points on the 10^th ; Robyn Keegan with a 9m chip in for par/4 points on the 17^th; Robyn Richardson holing a 10m putt on the 16^th for par/4 points; and Di Rumble Dickson scoring her 4 pointer on the 15^th. Roma Bernardin also chipped in on the 14th.
