Elmwood Golfing Society

Yesterday saw us all at Kinross Golf Club playing the Bruce Course for our Captains Away day which was in fantastic condition.

Congratulations to Jacqui Peebles and Richard Torrie for winning Nearest the Pin, Liz Pullar and Mike Knox for winning the Longest Drives, and the best team score was won by Mary Paton, Mary Cochrane, Alan Ritchie and Mark Cook.

Many thanks to all that came along and took part and special thanks to Kinross for looking after us and the staff at Elmwood for staying open late for us on our return.

🏆 Elmwood Retain the Tri Club Trophy! 🏆

The final round of this year's Tri Club Competition took place today at Drumoig Golf Course, with golfers enjoying fair conditions and a testing breeze throughout the day.

Unfortunately, due to several large visiting groups on the course, play was significantly delayed and the pace of play worsened as the round progressed. Following discussions between the three clubs, it was agreed that the competition would be concluded after 9 holes, ensuring a fair outcome for all competitors.

Despite the shortened final round, the competition remained closely contested right to the finish.

Final Round Scores
⛳ Drumoig – 144 points
⛳ Charleton – 144 points
⛳ Elmwood – 142 points

Final Standings
🥇 Elmwood – 455 points
🥈 Charleton – 448 points
🥉 Drumoig – 434 points

With a final tally of 455 points, Elmwood successfully retained the Tri Club Trophy, thanks to consistent performances across all three rounds.

Congratulations to all the Elmwood players who contributed to another successful campaign. Credit must also go to our friends at Charleton and Drumoig for their competitive spirit and sportsmanship throughout the series. Charleton mounted a strong challenge, while Drumoig finished their home round with the joint-best score of the day.

A sincere thank you to Drumoig for hosting the final round and to everyone who took part. While the day didn't quite go to plan because of the slow play, the competition was once again played in a fantastic spirit, showcasing the friendship and rivalry that makes the Tri Club event so enjoyable.

Well done Team Elmwood on retaining the Tri Club Trophy! 🏆💙⛳

The Tri Club competition continued in fine style with the second round played at Charleton Golf Club today, where players were greeted by glorious conditions—clear skies, warm sunshine, and a course presented in excellent order. The weather certainly played its part in producing another competitive and enjoyable day of golf across all three clubs: Elmwood, Charleton, and Drumoig.

Charleton made full use of home advantage, producing the best score of the day with an impressive 157 points, edging out Elmwood and pulling themselves firmly back into contention.

Elmwood, who led after the opening round, delivered a solid performance with 149 points, maintaining consistency across both rounds. Meanwhile, Drumoig found the going a little tougher on the day, returning 132 points.

After two rounds, Elmwood continues to lead the competition with a strong total of 313 points, thanks to consistent scoring across both venues.

Charleton, boosted by their excellent home performance, moves into second place with 304 points, narrowing the gap at the top and keeping the pressure firmly on the leaders.

Drumoig, despite a challenging second round, sits on 290 points and will be looking to bounce back strongly in their home round on the 15th August.

Cumulative Scores After Two Rounds
* Elmwood: 164 + 149 = 313 points
* Charleton: 147 + 157 = 304 points
* Drumoig: 158 + 132 = 290 points

With one round remaining, the competition is still very much alive. Elmwood holds a narrow lead, but Charleton’s resurgence has set up an exciting finale. If today’s sunshine and high-quality golf are anything to go by, the concluding round promises to be a fitting finish to a closely contested Tri Club event.

All to play for! ⛳

Congratulations to all of our Autumn/Winter winners after our end of season Captain vs Vice Captain recently, good luck to everyone in the Spring/Summer season!
