Matthew summed things up nicely: "On Sunday Brian broke free from the pack with a marvelous round of golf played on a marvelous golf course in marvelous conditions to overhaul Simon's round 2 lead to finish with 100 points beating Simon and Ben (W) by 2, marvelous."
Day One - Tadmarton Heath
Clearly one of the tougher days in tournament history with only three players cracking the 30 point mark. Kevin (34) was the early leader with defending champ Simon on 32 and Ben F on 31 the closest challengers.
Day Two - Stoneleigh Deer Park
Better scoring today with a couple of 35s and two 33s on the scoreboard. Simon was one of the 35 scorers taking him to 67 points and the lead into the final day. Ben W was the other to have him poised three shots back while Kevin (63), Brian (62) with Ben F and Matthew on 61 still in reach. Only James was most likely out of the running but he was produced final day masterclasses in the past.
Day Three - Kenilworth
Brian came flying out of the pack to take the trophy for the first time. His 38 points equalled his tour best and was four points more than anyone else on the day. That gave him a two point cushion over Simon (who thought he might have done enough to keep the trophy on his mantelpiece for another year) and Ben W who was looking for his sixth win
Final Scores
Brian - 29, 33, 38 =100
Ben W - 29, 35, 34 = 98
Simon - 32, 35, 31 = 98
Kevin - 34, 29, 31 = 94
Matthew - 28, 33, 30 = 91
Ben F - 31, 30, 23 = 84
James - 24, 26, 28 = 78
