IT was a perfect day for golf at Scone yesterday as 54 players contested the Scone Ladies Open.

There were visitors from twelve clubs mainly from the Hunter River District. In the first of the Open Days for the ladies golfing season, the Scone club set a high standard with a smoothly run event.

Scone Ladies Golf Open: Debbie Cooper winner of division 1, Hely Vandenbruggen runner up scratch, Dom Kelly winner scratch, Narelle Rutter winner division 2 and Sarah Brooks winner division 3.

Dom Kelly from Belmont Golf Club successfully defended her title in winning the Manning Cup for the best scratch score with 81.

Hely Vandenbruggen from Branxton was the runner up in the scratch with a great score of 84 which equated to 47 points, and this also won her the Veterans trophy.

Division prizes were distributed on the stableford scores and these were very good.

In Division 1 the winners were: 1st: Debbie Cooper (Singleton) 38 points, 2nd: Susan Weis (Merriwa) 37 points, 3rd: Julie Leckie (Scone) 37 points on a countback.

In Division 2 the winners were: 1st: Narelle Rutter (Scone) 37 points, 2nd: Nellie Holz (Denman) 37 points, 3rd: Tania Carrigan (Merriwa) 37 points on a countback.

The Divison 3 results were exceptional with the prizes going to 1st: Sarah Brooks (Scone) 43 points, 2nd: Jen Salna (Branxton) 39 points, 3rd: Sheena Carter (Scone) 39 points.

Sarah Brooks also had the best score by a Scone player and won the Beryl Phelps Trophy.

The Helloworld Scone $10, 000 Holiday Hole In One Prize on the 8th hole was not won but there were 54 players keen to try and win it.

The nearest the pin winners were: Division 1: Lindis Durham; Divison 2: Narelle Rutter; Division 3: Merrie Llewelyn whilst the Long Drives on the 5th went to Division1: Susan Wilson; Division 2: Lynda McDougall; Division 3: Dawn Jamieson.

In the teams of 2 aggregate it was an unusual result as there were equal winners: Sheena Carter & Sarah Brooks and Hely Vanderbruggen & Glenda Williams had 82 points.

In the lucky card draws the following players took home prizes: Division 1: Sue Watts; Division 2: Leah Considine; Division 3: Maureen Donaldson and the other happy people were the raffle winners: 1st: Nicholle O’Donnell; 2nd: Cheryl Clydsdale; 3rd: Merrie Llewelyn.

The many sponsors of the day allowed some great prizes to be given and their support was invaluable.

The day would not have been such a success without the help of the many members who worked on the course prior to the day, to have it in such a good condition.

The efforts of those in the clubhouse with the starting and results, and those who gave their time for the on course requirements were greatly appreciated, as were the contributions of those managing afternoon tea and all other aspects in the club.
