According to Keats, autumn may be the time of mellow fruitfulness, but it’s a time of winning golf competitions for the unstoppable Bramley and Appleton, both together and apart!
Jonny Bramley’s 36 points picked up the Sun Challenge Trophy and Division 2 winner’s prize at a windswept and rain-battered Berkshire Golf Club. And pal Nev Appleton took the Div 1 title with 33 points. If that wasn’t enough the dynamic duo then went out in the afternoon gusts to claim the Sir George Sutton Salver!
The salver has never been so hotly contested: the Bramley & Appleton pair (pear?); Jono Baker & Colin Hancock; and Paul Kelso & Ian Woods all scored 41 points, with countback required to separate the teams.
In Div 1, Nev was followed home by Olly McCormack with 31 and Paolo Minoli came in third with a very respectable 30 points. Div 2 saw the Bramley boy only one point ahead of Hugh Whittow’s 35 points, just better on countback than Jono Baker.
