Golf: Johnnie Walker Trophy

Med Golf’s tournament season moved to Almenara on Sunday 14th May when there was another good turnout for the Johnnie Walker Trophy, kindly sponsored by Saccone and Speed.

Neil Emmerson took the sponsors crystal trophy and the coveted Valderrama invitation by winning overall, closely followed by young Josh Jones in second place and Dan Kenyon third. Neil now joins previous event winners Louis Calvente, Denny To, Nicky Sanchez, Russ Crawford, Frank Samways and Andy Griffin at Valderrama for the Med Golf Masters in November. Neil also took the team prize with his partner Mark Crossley, whilst Dan had the best round of the day. Top lady was Una Mac, with Roy Azzopardi taking the senior prize.

Amongst the other prize winners, the “star quality” award went to John McHale, George Desoiza had the longest drive and the nearest the pin winners were Steve Parry, Julie Burgess, Dan Aldridge, Tom Rooney and Neil Emmerson.

For all those Med Golf members who are still looking for that Valderrama invitation, the next competition is the Gala Casino Trophy on the championship course at Montecastillio over the bank holiday weekend commencing 16th June, where Med Golf have organised a few days break in the luxurious 5-star hotel. Non-golfers and children are welcome. This is followed by the Smarties Bar (Woodhall Spa) Trophy on Sunday 2nd July at Santana, which is a new tournament venue.
