Donaldsons of Orkney senior mens open 2019

9th June saw 31 golfers compete in this years seniors open. The weather was overcast but pleasant with little wind. The winner of the nett competition was Stuart Barnett with a very good 63, 2nd prize went to Benny Thomson and 3rd was Robbie Norquoy. The gross trophy went to Brian Firth with a very respectable 75. Because the sponsor put up a new nett trophy the Doulls nett cup was played for by SRGC golfers not in the main prizes and Chris George was the winner of this with his 66. Erik Donaldson won the special at the 15th being closest to the pin in one. After play finished the sponsors treated all those present to pulled pork rolls and these were well received. The entry fee from this competition and the ladies senior open on the 7th July will be donated to this years nominated charity – The British Heart Foundation. A very good afternoons golf was had and the committee would like to thank the sponsor, the golfers who competed and all those who helped with the preparations and running the event.
