Mens South East Group Qualifier

Saturday 11th July saw Orsett Golf Club host this years Mens South East Group Qualifiers also known as the 6-man team event. Suffolk would compete with 11 counties from this area with the winners going to national finals. 

Mens South East Group Qualifier

Suffolk’s team comprised of Reuben Harvey, Gregor Tait, Patrick Coffey, Sam Renville, Taylor Crisp and Russell Oakey. Orsett was hot, hard and bouncy so scoring wasn’t going to be easy but Suffolk’s morning was solid. The combined team score was +9 in the morning with the best morning round coming from Russell Oakey who’s 72 (E) was handy. 

The afternoon round really did take its tool on the field as the weather made scoring tougher. The Suffolk players again proved consistent with scoring only increasing on average by a shot per player. Suffolk’s afternoon best scorer was Reuben Harvey who equalled Russells 72 from the morning. A combined +15 saw Suffolk finish the day +24 with an 8th place finish. 

Essex were the days overall winners with a -1 total. Even with the home advantage this was quite the performance on the day. Congratulations to Essex who we wish the best of luck at County Finals.
