Club news 

The last match of Shelley Sturdy's long reign as junior organiser ended with a resounding win in the Shooters Hill Cup, 2 ½ v ½ against the holders Eltham Warren at Shooters Hill Golf Club. 

However, the scoreline really doesn't give a clue how tight two of the matches were, but the team of George Moore Jnr, Louie Johnson, Max Broughton, George Killick, Ellis Cameron and Ainee O'Connor (in her last match as Junior Captain), held on to bring home the trophy.

After the Captains Committee meeting last Thursday, Club Captain Dave Mace made a presentation to Shelley in recognition of her outstanding contribution to the Junior section over many years. 

   

Well done Shelley!


The Perman Shield

The Perman shield team played their semi final at home to Shooters Hill last week. The mornings foursomes saw Sundridge Park edge ahead 2 ½ v 1 ½ with the 8 afternoon singles to play. It was clear that Shooters Hill were feeling confident at lunch time as they get the ½ point if it ends 6 all.

With team Captain Richard picking a clever order for the afternoon the team headed out with Sam Keevill at 1, who after a defeat with Dan Dring in the morning returned a convincing 8 and 6 win, this sent out a strong message with our boys storming to an 8-0 win in the afternoon. Notable results include Dave Nash who has come into the side this year and beating all before him as well as Dan Dring beating their long hitting star player.

The team consisted of: Richard Tomlin, Alfie Plant, Tom Beaumont, Dave Nash, Danny Smith, Dan Dring, Sam Keevill and Andrew James.


International Matches

On Saturday in lovely weather we had the second of this year's International Matches - with 12 men and 4 ladies per side - Scotland drew with the Rest of the World and Ireland narrowly defeated England. 

After the game we then had a sit down meal of Thai Food and were entertained by the the singing of Ita Wise 

The final match for this year is on 17th October 2015 and currently Scotland lead the table with 3 points closely followed by England and Ireland with 2 points and Rest of the World with 1, so all to play for on the 17th.

If you are interested in playing please contact your respective teams Captains - Dhan Sharma (ROW), Charles Andrew (Sco), Kevin Collins (Ire) and David Brenes (Eng) or contact the office.


Ladies section 

On Saturday, 19 September the team of Tita McCart, Kim Morris, Ainee O'Connor, Rachel Martin, Nancy O'Connor and Ingrid Long beat Nizels at home 4 - 1 with some impressive results. 

The return match at Nizels was played on Sunday, 20 September where the team of Tita McCart, Kim Morris, Rachel Martin, Nancy O'Connor and Ingrid Long were successful in winning the two matches needed to secure the win and to progress to the finals. The match result was 3 wins with two matches not completed. 

The final will be played at West Kent against North Foreland on Sunday, 4 October. First tee time will be at 1.00 pm. 

I would like to thank all the team on a magnificent win and wish them the best of luck in the finals. 


Tour news 

A strong field has assembled at Bad Griesbach to do battle for this prestigious title for the first time in six years. Graeme McDowell is one of the star names on the start sheet, and he's joined by the likes of Charl Schwartzel, Hunter Mahan and German legend Bernhard Langer. 

"It is a fantastic feeling to see the European Open on the tournament schedule for the European Tour again," said McDowell. "I've often played this tournament and all the players always considered it to be one of the most significant events of the entire season. I'm thrilled that Porsche is on board as the title sponsor. Not just because Porsche is such an exceptional brand, but also because it's the first time the company has been involved in professional golf." 

This event was first contested on the European Tour in 1978 when Bobby Wadkins was the victor at Walton Heath GC. The tournament has been played at some of the finest courses - Turnberry, Sunningdale, Royal Liverpool and for a number of years at the K Club. Previous winners of the competition include: Bernhard Langer, Nick Faldo, Ian Woosnam, Tom Kite, Sandy Lyle, Lee Westwood and Colin Montgomerie. 

The last time the competition was held was at The London Club in 2009. Frenchman Christian Cevaer was the champion there. Since then Cevaer has retired from the European Tour so won't be in Bavaria to defend his title. 

With five Championship golf courses - three of which were designed by Bernhard Langer - and three hotels, the Hartl Resort at Bad Griesbach is the largest golf and spa resort in Europe. The tournament will be contested over the resort's Beckenbauer course. 

The weather looks set fair for the end of this week in Bavaria so, with luck, the tournament will be completed without interruption. 

Player watch: 

Romain Wattel - The Frenchman played as well as anybody last week in Italy but he just couldn't find the spark to get the birdies flowing on the final day. If he continues to hit the ball like he did in Milan he will contend this time out. 

Hunter Mahan - The American will be disappointed to miss a FedEx Cup playoff event for the first time in his career - He failed to make the top-30 going to East Lake for the Tour Championship. He will be keen to make amends with a good showing here. He's been on good form of late. 

Lucas Bjerregaard - The young Dane has a huge amount of potential and he showed that again last week in Milan. But for a short missed putt on the 17th he would have been in the playoff with Martin Kaymer and Rikard Karlberg. He's one to watch this week.
