STATE NEWS SOUTH AUSTRALIA: CHESTERMAN SECURES HAT-TRICK NEW SOUTH WALES: METRO WEST WINS ZONE CHALLENGE A brilliant score of 41 points in challenging hot, humid conditions on the East Course at Grange Golf Club secured The Vines’ General Manager, Matt Chesterman’s, a hat trick in the GMA SA NSW Salver. The Metro West region has won the Opening Weekend Event for 2018 played at the Elanora Country Club. Glenelg Golf Club’s Ben Kavenagh secured second place with 35 points with Mt Osmond’s Mark Tan winning a 3-way countback on 33 points to take out third place. We have a feeling the match committee will be reviewing the conditions of entry as, obviously, home course advantage is greatly assisting in Matt’s continual success in this much coveted event…….. A great day of golf, camaraderie and networking was enjoyed by all and we greatly appreciate the support of Grange Golf Club for allowing us to play the event on their East Course. The three Metro zones were separated by only one point with the best three scores from Metro West returned by Massey Park’s Tony Rosillo (30), Cumberland’s Andrew Laplain (30) and Muirfield’s Cameron Harvey (33) for a total of 93 points. They won on a count back from Metro South made up of The Coast’s Kieran Semple (30) and Nora Nagy (31) and Cronulla’s Derryn Weigand (32). Metro North’s side of Ben Russell (Long Reef – 32), Andy Hugill (Mona Vale – 31) and Anthony Dignan (Long Reef – 29) were one point back. The best member single score for the day was Ben Russell (32) with runner-up Andy Hugill (31) while Best Guest score was Ross Fleming (Mona Vale – 36) followed by Bronson Garlick (Garlos Pies – 34).
