Hola AMIGOS
You were such a lovely audience today looking so well ‘at home’ in The Shamrock ‘lounge’ that you could almost think that we hadn’t played golf! Your support was appreciated and you did appear to have had a very good day and were enjoying yourselves. It was such a lovely autumn day for the golf which, being played on a consistently good quality golf course, that we were anticipating some good scoring. And, the scoring was very good indeed highlighted by some stand out winning totals. Let’s see how you performed: -
Category 1
As expected the cream of Amigos golfers stood up to the task very well and honourable mentions of 35 Stableford points and 37 tell the story. Well played Brian Platt, Colin Walters, James Clasby and Jonathan Thompson with 35 points and Chris Hamilton with the 37.  The Runner-Up and 3rd places tied and what about the Winner, clearly playing a different and outstanding game and deserving of a place in the Forties Club! Congratulations to all: -
Winner : Kevin Feeney : 43 points
Runner-Up : Neil Tobin : 38 points (h/c 8.2)
3rd Place : Martin Trevillion : 38 points (h/c 10.7)
Category 2
Not quite matching the performances of Category 1 Players but still some very good scoring and honourable mentioning Klaus Hummel, 33 points, Iain Stewart, 34 points and Stephen Day, 35 points for the record. The podium places and into the money saw these Amigos tie for 2nd and 3rd places and the winning total was excellent by a ‘local’ member.  Many congratulations to all: -
Winner : Simon O’Connor : 37 points
Runner-Up : Ron Weller : 36 points (h/c 14.1)
3rd Place : Dell Holloway : 36 points (h/c 16.9)
Category 3
Very creditable performances were recorded on the scorecards, so well done division 3 Amigos and honourable mentions are awarded to Ken Sewell, 34 points, Eileen Greeney and Liz Murty, 35 points and Steve Nicholls, 36 points. Our 1-2-3’s performers were excellent. Congratulations: -
Winner : Heidi Didden : 39 points
Runner-Up : Aiden McCrory: 37 points (h/c 25.4)
3rd Place : Gary Conway : 37 points (h/c 26.0)
Team Competition 
Iain Stewart put out some very well matched Teams and you all gelled together to give close groupings but the top money went to Teams in the forties. Good scoring, enhanced by good individual performances, won the money: -
Winners : Team 12 : 147 points
Christian Ceuterick, Kevin Feeney, Rudy Ceusters and Liz Murty
Runners-Up : Team 10 : 146 points
Chris Hamilton, John Byrne, Graham Whant and Heidi Didden

Nearest the Pins
Excellent shots were delivered by Kevin Feeney, holes 2 and 15 (in 2); Martin Trevillion, hole 14 and (debutant) Steve Porter, hole 15 (in 2), a good example to us all.
Two’s Pot
Dave Hughes, what a 2 on the par 4, 12th hole! That made the other two’s look ordinary 😂. Nevertheless excellent marksmanship from Neil Tobin, hole 2; Eileen Greeney, hole 8; James Clasby and Neil Tobin, hole 14 and Kevin Feeney and Martin Trevillion, hole 17.
We have an excellent program of competitions through to the end of the year and hope that you will join us for the next few; Alicante Golf (you have to play this Seve Ballesteros golf course if you’ve not played it before, it’s a must) on Thursday 26 Nov’26 and it’s on the four-course Seve Trail for points; the Platinum Fours on Saturday 28 Nov’26 is fully booked but there is availability at Vistabella on FRIDAY, 04 Dec’26.  Please register in the usual way or let us know.
Thank you to our specialist production Team, Iain Stewart, Brian Platt, Dave Hughes, Harry Rice, Ron Weller, Alan Kilminster with Colin Walters, photographer and Shane Bordier presenting. (And Bob Lancaster looking down us!) And The Shamrock ☘️ for servicing us so well and anyone else who I might have inadvertently missed.
Let’s also wish Lord Tony Foster and Mary all of the very best for the future back in the UK.
Muchas gracias
Graham😂👍
