Thursday Stableford – 26 March 2026

Well, the weather gods finally decided we’d had enough of the good run. After what felt like the best stretch of “summer” we’ve seen in a while, the rain arrived right on cue and brought things back to reality.

That said, it held off just long enough for some solid scoring, and those who embraced the conditions still managed to put together some very tidy rounds.
