Stanley
Bergin hat trick for John.
..............................
The
first silverware of the year was on offer at County Meath Golf
Club on Tuesday 3rd May, where the Stanley Bergin Memorial
Trophy was keenly contested. Having bridged a 38 year gap by winning
the trophy for a second time in 2013, John Foley ensured there would
be a much smaller interval this time when his score of 35pts was sufficient
to bring up the hat trick in 2016. Chasing him all the way to the
finish were Charlie Doran, Des Long and Kevin McKenna all with 34pts,
just a missed putt or wayward approach from possible victory.
Despite
poor weather in the days leading up to the outing, the course was
in good playing condition, and although the day was somewhat breezy,
long spells of sunshine made for a very pleasant few hours chasing
the small white (or yellow) ball.
The
catering was first class and the Pro Shop staff most obliging as per
usual. For many years, the Stanley Bergin Memorial outing was synonymous
with Delgany G.C., but most would agree that it has now found a welcome
and worthy new home in Trim and we look forward to returning to this
tranquil but testing venue for many more years.
