Lincoln Golf Club

Members Cup
27 May 2025

The Annual Members Cup resembled the 2.40 at Market Rasen with a number of late withdrawals.
 
Unlike the hard ground of Rasen the first rain for two months greeted the golfers to the first tee.
 
By the time the players reached the back nine surface water were on the greens as conditions worsened. 
The cup itself turned into a close competition with four players in contention up to the last putt.
 
Taking the conditions into account Harvey Benson's winning score of 35 points was a great effort in such conditions. A countback determined second and third places with Adrian Kitchinson edging out John Brogan with Captain Michael Billson a further point back in fourth.
 
Nearest the pins went to Steve Leachman, Neil Houghton and Gary Benson. Gary making the only two on the day. The team prize went to Ernie Dyson, Steve Guilliatt, Leachman and Harvey Benson.
The players retired to the Anglers Hotel for some much needed refreshments.
 
The days competition was sponsored by Shadow Automotive and we like to thank MD Joe Flint for his continued support of the Society.
