18th Hole Dramas v Arbroath

Strathmore Seniors lost their first home match since 2007 when they went down heavily (it would appear) to Arbroath on Tuesday afternoon.

The match result reads Strathmore 1; Arbroath 5 but does not reflect the tightness of the contest with Strathmore succumbing to Arbroath quality play on the 18th hole in 4 of the 5 losses. The other loss came in a match where Ian Scott was forced to go it alone against a strong pairing from Arbroath while Jim Ross and Bob Greig romped home 6 and 5 in our only victory of the day. We look for better fortune in next year's encounter.

As per usual compliments abounded from the visitors on the course and its condition with a special thanks to the greenkeeper and staff and the quality of the centres kitchen and service.

Although it was again a fight to get a team together I am quite sure that those who competed enjoyed the day.
