Wednesday April 11, Summer Trophy. In true WBGC tradition the second round of the 2018 Summer Trophy got under way on a morning that would have seemed cold in December, let alone April.
The field of 18 players found conditions were far from easy and the CSS went out to its maximum of 66. 1 David Blair (16)65, 2 Ronnie Mann (13)66, 3 John Pennycott(13)68, 4 Ryan Armstrong (8)69. Jamie Stewart carded the lowest gross score at 69 and there were magic twos from Jamie and John Dick, both at the fourth hole.
Sunday April 15, Summer Trophy. Twelve played in this round of the Summer Trophy, postponed from April 4. Conditions were much improved from recent outings with the greens firming up and running true and scoring was generally good, with all but two scores in the 60s. CSS went down to 62 and, continuing his recent fine form, John Pennycott ran out a comfortable winner on net 60. 1 John Pennycott (13)60, 2 David Blair (16)62, 3 Nicol Auld (5)63 ACB and lowest gross, 4 Stan Rainey (1)63.
