It was a picture-perfect day for golf, with 31 players hitting the course for the July 2025 Monthly Medal. And while some rounds may have had their shaky moments, a few solid shots and timely putts were all it took to keep spirits high—and golfers keen to return next week.
Congratulations to our Monthly Medal winners: Elspeth Scotford for the ladies and Gerald Lovell for the men. We were also pleased to welcome visitors Shane Aldridge and Gerald Heavey, who added to the day’s fun.
