The second Major of Bunkers 2017 season was played at the fabulous Ormskirk Golf Club on a typically English summers day of cloud and a shower. The event was Sponsored by our great friend PGA Professional Barry Taylor
Ormskirk is a tricky layout that requires a degree of accuracy to keep the ball away from the punishing rough. Dan made use of his shots and worked his way around the course to utilise his handicap to his advantage. It can't be too often that the winner of a Bunkers event [and a Major at that] is unhappy for large parts of the round with his play - and then walk away with the top prize. Tantrums wa feature of his 18 holes, along with some solid play and he takes his maiden victory - and a Major to boot. Congratulations to Dan on a great win. |
