Taking part in our Corporate Golf
Day at Hollinwell Golf Club clearly
did local professional Greg Owen
the power of good.
Greg has followed our fortunes for
many years and eagerly accepted
an invitation from our Finance
Director John Peiling to take part
in the competition.
I don't know whether John passed on
any pearls of his own golfing wisdom
during the day but within weeks of
the Hollinwell event, Greg had secured
his first victory on the European Tour.
He won the illustrious British Masters
tournament - and with it a cheque
for £250,000.
We weren't able to offer such a
large cash sum to the winner of our
Corporate Golf Day but the event
was still keenly contested.
Mike Wood of Beechdale Motor Group
and his guests landed the first prize
with 86 Stableford points with Simon
Winfield of Klinger and his guests
in second with 81 points.
The team representing Norn's Plant
Hire, which was made up of Steve
Norris and his guests, grabbed third
spot with 79 points.
Incidentally, Greg collected six
birdies on his way round Hollinwell
and, in the process, he put us mere
mortals to shame!
We are currently taking bookings for
our third annual Academy Golf Day
at Springwater Golf Club on Monday,
September 1.
All proceeds from the event go
towards the running costs of our
Academy, which has produced a
string of excellent young players,
