The traditional season opener – the Captain v Vice Captain match was played over the Queens course this morning on a lovely spring day.

Members were delighted to find a surprise waiting for them on the 12th tee in the form of Director of Golf Gary Silcock, Dormy House Manager Houssem Belabed and a Glorious Playground Gleneagles champagne bar!!

It’s unclear whether this helped or hindered subsequent play, but was much appreciated anyway as a very kind gesture to mark the start of the club’s golfing season.

The match was halved with 3.5 points each. Dun Whinny was delighted to welcome Foundation Junior members Connor Graham and Tom Morton, both playing with the club for the first time.

Next week sees the first counting competition, so let’s have another excellent turnout.
