Moseley makes hay at Carmarthen club championship

MATTHEW Moseley posted the best two-round scratch score to lift the D R Evans Cup at Carmarthen’s Club Championship.

There was some exceptional scoring on the West Wales course with Moseley firing a superb 65 over the morning’s 18 holes then following that up with a 74 in the afternoon.

His total of 139 was four shots better than the next player home which turned out to be Rhys Lindquist, who also broke 70 in the morning with a 69 before matching Moseley after lunch.

Ian Marks took third place with rounds of 74 and 71 for an aggregate score of 145. There was silverware for Lindquist though as he won the Chairman’s Bowl for the best overall net score (135).

Marks was runner-up with 137, six clear of David Thomas (143) in third. Other players to acquit themselves well during the morning round were James MacDonald (net 68), Mick Fenney (69) and Ray Skinner (70). Simon Davies also came in with a net 70 in the afternoon.

Carmarthen’s junior members contested their own Club Championship and Jamie Dean took first prize in the silver section after two great rounds of 67 and 68 for a net total of 135. He beat the McAvoy brothers, Iestyn and Osian, who  finished two shots adrift on 137.

Sean Hazelby also had a fine round on the second day, shooting 67, while Osian McAvoy’s net 63 on day one was the best of the competition and could have been even better had he not finished with a 10 on the final hole.

In the bronze section, Rhys Jones won with his six-under par two-round total, beating Nick Evans by just a single shot. Jordan Evans carded a terrific net 64 on the first day and Nick’s brother Chris fired a 66 on day two.

Iestyn Evans, Jamie Dean, Jordan Evans and Sion Jenkins were once again in the prizes in the EMS Junior Open Day.

St Mary’s held three big finals recently while those not involved took part in a full handicap stableford.

First, Ian Taylor beat Joe Davis to win the Vets Challenge Cup then George Parry was victorious over Phil Banks to lift the Matchplay Knockout Shield.

The third major competition, the Summer Pairs Knockout, was won by Roy Denton and Allan Bennett after they saw off Andrew Lane and Gordon Martin to take first prize.

The stableford was won with 37 points by David Knighton, who edged out Bob Coombes by one with Fred Evans third on 34.


Lynette Bassett and Gethin Davies teamed up to win the Brodie Shields Mixed Foursome at Ashburnham with a combined net round of 74.5, just ahead of Aled and Nia Greville.

A stunning 65 gave Ben Thomas the Junior Medal, his gross score 77 was also the lowest in the event. Jordan Davies (74) was second and Daniel Brice  (77) third while Craig Young edged out Kieran Stephens on countback to claim the Bowen Cup.

Round 11 of the Dawn Patrol Seniors’ League at Derllys Court was clinched by Roger Horsfall with 41 points. Jeff Thomas was next best on 39 with Idwal Thomas making up the top three with 37.

Meanwhile, Richard Bennett was the clear winner of the Bogey Cup at The Grove as Ged Rave took second from Stuart Mason.
