The Benny Duo Blazes to Victory in Sunday’s Canadian 2 Stroke!

It was a picture-perfect winter’s day for the Sunday Mixed Canadian 2 Stroke, proudly sponsored by Judy and Ken Mount. Players were greeted by beautiful, cool sunshine, and with the course drying out beautifully and looking in absolute top-tier condition, the stage was perfectly set for some low scoring.

In the Canadian Foursomes stroke-play format, it was the powerhouse pairing of P. Benny and S. Benny who truly made the most of the great conditions. Playing off a 15 daily handicap, the duo put on a clinic to fire a spectacular net 64 (-7), clearing the field by two clear strokes.

The Leaderboard Highlights

• The Winners: P. Benny + S. Benny took top spot with a blistering 7-under-par net 64.
• The Runners-Up: Vincent + Rasmussen mounted a serious challenge off their 22 handicap, carding a brilliant net 66 (-5) to secure second place.
• The Steady Finishers: K. Springfield + B. Springfield showed great consistency playing off an 11 handicap, grinding out an even-par net 71 to claim third.
• Rounding out the Top 5: Ryan + Jessop (+2) and the Cooper duo (+3) kept themselves firmly in the mix with solid rounds to finish fourth and fifth respectively.

Sharpshooters on the Greens: Nearest to the Pins

The competition was fierce across the par threes, with the Nearest to the Pins shootout proudly sponsored by Ali and Tony Blair. A special shout-out to Kaye Mills, Paul Pring, and Pauline Benny, who all managed to clean up multiple prizes on the day!

Here are the sharpshooters who hit it closest:

• 2nd Hole: Kaye Mills (Ladies) & Brian Springfield (Mens)
• 7th Hole: Kaye Mills (Ladies) & Dale Park (Mens)
• 11th Hole: Katrina Springfield (Ladies) & Paul Pring (Mens)
• 12th Hole: Pauline Benny (Ladies) & Paul Pring (Mens)
• 16th Hole: Pauline Benny (Ladies) & Sam Benny (Mens)
• PRO PIN 12th Hole – Alison Blair
