MGC Junior Results

Friday, 22nd Apr 2022


A busy first week of the school holidays for our Juniors.

On Tuesday / Wednesday Marton Golf Club proudly hosted the Shand Salver and Pelorus Cup. Played between hosts Manawatu / Wanganui, Hawkes Bay, Taranaki and Wellington regions, it was the first outing for Junior players in 2022 to experience a teams event at a provincial level.

Marton Golf Club was proud to announce we had our own Juniors representing Manawatu / Wanagnui, Fred McVerry selected to play in the Shand Salver Team and Liam & Ryan Bremner selected to play in the Development Team for the Pelorus Cup.

 

Results - First round Vs Hawkes Bay

Positive first day with Fred winning his Shand Salver match 2&1, the team coming away square at 2 all. In the Development Team Liam charged in with a victory of 5&4 with young Ryan following suit winning 4&2 shortly after. A narrow loss for the team though unfortunately 4.5/5.5.

Second round Vs Taranaki

The Manawatu / Wanganui Teams battled hard in both the Shand Salver and Pelorus Cup matches, Fred not faring so well in the morning match going down 5&4 and losing the battle with Taranaki 3/1. The Bremner boys in the Development Team led their team out well, both winning their matches, Liam 2&1 and Ryan 3&2 but again the narrowest of shortfalls left Manawatu / Wanganui on the losing side of the scoreboard 4.5/5.5

Third round Vs Wellington

The afternoon brought the teams up against a mighty fine Wellington side. Superb golf played by all 3 MGC lads, Fred losing on the 18th to an opponent who birdied his last 2 holes and Ryan also showing great form but going down on the last. Liam brought home the sole point for for the Manawatu / Wanganui side against Wellington and was the only player in the team to go undefeated across the 2 days. Teams losing 3/1 in the Shand Salver and 9/1 in the Pelorus Cup.

 

Onwards and Upwards for the Juniors as they headed down to Rangitikei on Thursday / Friday to compete in the Lower North Island Age Grade Championships. Playing 36 holes across the 2 days the boys put on another great display of golf.

Results

U13 Gross Division - Ryan Bremner 4th

U19 Nett Division - Liam Bremner 2nd

U19 Stableford Division - Fred McVerry 10th

 

Further afield in the far north at Muriwai we had MGC member Ryan Rooney competing at the Autex Muriwai Open, a NZ PGA Event this week. Delivering a great first day on the links course with an even par opening 9 and just 2 over par second 9, Ryan sat T44 amongst the 120+ players in the field Day 1. The weather turned for Day 2 with a very wet morning leading into high coastal winds for the afternoon which made the Muriwai links course an extreme challenge. Unfortunately Ryan didn't make the cut for the weekend but we still are immensely proud of your achievments here at MGC.

 

Fred, Liam, Ryan B, Ryan R. You all have done an outstanding job representing Marton Golf Club and Manawatu / Wanagnui. You've done MGC proud.
