81 ladies played in fairly good conditions today (no wind for a change) on the Murray Course which meant foiur grades.
Scores were sizzling from many of the players and we needed countbacks to decide on winners and runners-up in some grades.
A Grade winner was Karen Droop (20) with 39 points while runner up was Louise Cross (19) with 35 on a c/b from Robyn Moore, Dee Payne and Erin York.
B Grade was won by Sharyn Wilson(26) with the score of the day of 43 points. Runner up was Jenny Thomas (26) with 38 on a c/b from Sandra Bozzola.
C Grade winner was Lisa Weir (31) with 38 points on a c/b from Olivia Ng(30) as runner up. Others in C grade with 38 points were Judi Lawrance and Chez Edwards.
D Grade winner was Jenny Luke (36) with a great score of 42 points and runner up was Carolyn Boston (41) with 38.

Saturday Dec 6
I am running out of superlatives to describe the great scores the ladies keep having! Another day, another batch of high scores.
It was the first Saturday medal for 2026 and also our 2025 Saturday Medal of Medallists.
For our 2025 Medallist play off we had 8 ladies competing with Krys Bridgeman posting the joint score of the day of 44 points to easily take the win. Mary Hockley with 35 points was the 2025 Medallist runner up. Well done Krysie and Mary.
59 ladies took to the Murray Course for our first medal of the year. More great scores from the winners from both grades with countbacks needed to separate the winners and runners-up.
In A Grade Helen Archer edged out Jane Cronk on a c/b with both scoring 39 points. Helen also won the pewter for A Grade.
While in B Grade the scores of the day went to Krys Bridgeman and Helen Powell with both having 44 points. Krys edged out Helen Powell on a c/b for the Saturday medal and the pewter.

YMGCR Mens Nine Holers
On Tuesday the Summer hit offs started at 9am to avoid the heat and played the Pot Round where 67 thirsty golfers battled it out on the Blue in A and B Grade to get the monthly pot card.
In B Grade Doug Fasoli's 27 was enough for him to take the win, edging Ian Barton, Normie "Mussels" Moule and Ray "Frogger" French by a stroke with all three scoring 28 strokes, with ball prizes going to 31 on countback.
In A Grade long time member Norm Coleman shaded Charlie Hope in a countback on 30 to take the win, with the ever-consistent Peter Mansfield coming close with 31.
This left Corny Boers and Andrew Beattie split on a countback on 32 and balls to Paul Byrne, Ian Shaw, Artie Massey and Tom Hackett.
Thursday’s hot weather saw the players battling for new sponsor The Yarrawonga Hotel meal ticket and in B Grade Rod "Maxi" Nichol took the win with 21 points to edge an unlucky Norm Prior (20) who had a wipe on
the 6th when his chip onto the green hit the GUR hoops and rebounded back costing him the hole.
Mick Doran came third also scoring 20 points, with balls going to Graham Milner, Joe Cilia, Joe Sciberras, Stu Paterson and Norm Knott.
In A grade Glenn "Pinky" Perkins took the dinner voucher with 20 points to leave Artie Massey again being runner up along with Billy Hidson on 19.
Balls went to John Kolodziej, Warwick Sellars, Terry Murphy, Ray Douglas, Peter Mansfield and Roy McCann.
It is with much sadness that the Nine Holers say goodbye to another comrade. Vale Joe Kapp -a long time respected and well-liked member of the Nine Holers and of YMGCR who passed last week after recent health setbacks over the past few years.
