A Star is Born. Readers of this column may recall an old movie, ‘A Star
is Born’ which has recently had a remake. Well, Stanthorpe Golf Club is
witnessing its own version of a Star is Born. On Saturday the 14th the
Old Guard looked on in grudging admiration as young Zac Hendry put on a
stellar performance to win head and shoulders above the rest of the
field. Zac’s ‘Space X’ performance totalled 43 Stableford points.
Followed by another young gun A J Grasso on 40 points, putting the Old
Boys on notice. Fortunately Barry Hughes came in with the very tidy 39
and preserved the dignity of the Old Guard. Congratulations to three
very impressive place getter’s.
The men’s pins and pro pins went to Matt Waterworth, Len Leigh, Michael
O’Brien, Matt Penn and Dave Reeves.
What made Saturday’s golf such a star light success for the Men’s and
Women’s competitions was the generous sponsorship of the ever smiling,
Laraine Gurnett and Neta Thouard. These ladies are great supporters of
the Club and the game and we are indebted to them for their support.
As a matter of fact, Laraine Gurnett’s love of the game didn’t stop at
sponsorship but she decided to win as well. Hot on Laraine’s heels were
Mei Bell and Lisa Stuart. Congratulations ladies. The Pin and Pro Pins
went to Mei Bell, Neta Thouard, Lisa Stuart and Helen Jones. Speaking
of ‘A Star is Born,’ the Stanthorpe Ladies Golf can boast of Hanna
Reeves who launched from Stanthorpe and is one of the top flight stars
of women’s golf in Australia. Fly high Hanna. Next Saturday’s (21st)
competition is the Laurie Newley Memorial Day sponsored by the Newley
family.
The Members Draw did not go off so next Saturday 21st Sept will be $70. You must be in the clubhouse to win.
