Hi everyone,
A busy and brilliant Thursday at Kelvin Heights for the Z Energy Mixed Stableford, played under warm skies and a gentle breeze — a welcome break from the four-seasons madness we’ve endured lately. The scoring was hot, the twos were plentiful, and we even witnessed a couple of rare fireworks on a par 4!
Below are the full results and highlights from a very lively day on course.

These weren’t run-of-the-mill twos — they were full-blooded, flag-hunting, highlight-reel strikes. The kind of shots you remember for a long time, and the kind you quietly hope someone else witnessed so they don’t sound made-up.
