Stuart Biden Wins Club Championship In Playoff

The Club Championship took place last weekend and it was a shame to see the number of entries down from previous years, but at least the competitors were blessed with two of the hottest days of the year. A three man play-off was required to decide the Club Championship this year which was between Dan Kucharski, Mark Penfold and Stuart Biden. 

A bogey from Dan on the first playoff hole saw him miss out this year but he wasn't to disappointed as his nett 63 & 71 was good enough to win the Club Trophy this year. Great playing Dan! After Mark birdied the final hole to get into the play-off, he could not repeat that to take it to a third playoff hole. Stuart knocked it in for a birdie in front of a packed balcony and took the victory. A massive congratulations to Stuart Biden who finally becoming the Club Champion with rounds of 79 & 71. Very well played Stuart and fully deserved 

Well done also to Lawrence Brooker who shot a nett 68 on the Sunday to win the Club Salver.



Records tumble at Erin Hills

There's no arguing that Ryder Cup player Brooks Koepka was the deserved winner of the 117th US Open at Erin Hills. The American carded a wonderful final round of 67 to win by four, having gone into Sunday one shot off the lead alongside playing partner Tommy Fleetwood.

Justin Thomas also found himself one shot back with 18 holes to play, something which looked rather unlikely before a historic 63 vaulted him up the leader board on 'moving day' whilst breaking the record for the lowest-ever US Open round in the process.

But this wasn't the only record to fall last week, as Koepka's four-round total (16 under) equalled the US Open's lowest winning score which was previously set by Rory McIlroy back in 2011.

With much of the pre-tournament hype focusing on the penal rough lining the fairways, it probably doesn't come as a surprise to learn that Koepka hit 49 out of 56 fairways across the four days whilst also managing to find 62 out 72 greens in regulation - including 17 during his final round! Truly impressive golf.
