Club Championship Weekend
It was that time of the year again last weekend, the return of the Club Championship. We saw some glorious weather for the first day, but it still proved to be a tough test for all the competitors. After the first round there was a 3 way tie. Ceri Llewellyn, Aled White and Adam Curtin all shot impressive rounds of 73. More than 10 players were still within 5 shots of the lead so the second round was still all to play for.
After a wet start the sun came through for the conclusion of the second day. Aled and Adam both fell away during the final round, which put Ceri in pole position during the latter stages. New member this year and first team player Rob Neucker who started the day 3 behind, was putting an excellent round together which heaped the pressure on Ceri. Coming close a few times before Ceri was no stranger to the pressure of the Club Championship, and he showed this finishing well to secure his first Club Championship. Congratulations Ceri Well deserved!
The Ladies Club Championship was also played this weekend, with most of the first team players taking part to battle it out for victory! After the first day Fauve Birch had the lead, she was closely followed by Angela Pritchard and Lousie Fleet. Fauve is a new member this year and has also won the Glamorgan County Championship which was held at Pennard.
Tune in next week to find out about what happened in round 2.
Special mention to the Greenkeepers this week. I think we can all agree the course has been a pleasure to play not only on the weekend of the Club Championship, but all year round. With compliments from both members and guests this year, it's easy to see why Pennard is one of the finest courses in Wales.

TaylorMade M1 Driver Sale!
Get a dozen FREE golf balls worth £45 when you purchase an M1 Driver at Pennard!
We have full custom fitting available!
TaylorMade's longest driver, the M1 has a multi-material construction - featuring an ultra-thin, ultra-light and high-strength carbon composite crown - that can achieve breakthroughs in distance, playability, and feel for all golfers. This addition has allowed TaylorMade to build a weight-loaded sole and move overall clubhead weight (and, thus, the center-of-gravity) lower for a more efficient power transfer, giving golfers more ball speed (otherwise known as WHAMMY).
To make their longest driver ever, for a wide range of golfers, TaylorMade needed to expand the settings to give golfers more options to personalize performance to fit their game. M1 features the revolutionary T-Track System that consists of both a front and back track with 25 grams of adjustable weight. This gives golfers the option to personalize their M1 to their exact specifications, leading to perfect performance and distance to fit their swing.
