Kent Seniors Southern Counties Foursomes Qualifier – Highgate Golf Club – 8th August
Thursday 8th August at Highgate Golf Club North London (the second closest golf course to the City). A short course of just 6033 yards however with some tricky short fiddly holes, and some long tough par fours. All in excellent condition for the South Eastern Group Senior Foursomes Qualifying event with Kent, Hertfordshire, Essex and Middlesex all competing in a round robin format.
The morning saw a fantastic performance, but sadly from Hertfordshire, winning all 5 matches. A half in the afternoon’s matches against either Kent or Essex being enough to ensure qualification for Hertfordshire with Kent and Essex both sadly resulting in 2 further wins for Hertfordshire.
In the afternoon’s games, Kent rallied to win 3.5 points. Hertfordshire continued their winning ways by gaining 3 points to emerge comfortable winners. Good luck to Hertfordshire in the final at Exeter Golf Club in September.
A huge thanks to Middlesex Golf Union and Highgate Golf Club for hosting the event and for their superb hospitality throughout the day. Next up for Kent Seniors are league matches on 2nd and 5th September against Dorset and Hampshire.
