SIMON Harding and James Storey amassed a commendable 41 points to take the honours in the February Tom Evans Foursomes competition at Calcot Park.

The popular competition pairs an ‘A’ player with a ‘B’ player – with a favoured saying from the ‘B’ players that they will show their partners parts of the course they have never seen.

Runners-up were Simon Brooker and Keith Harris with 38 points and third place went to Harry Chapple and Steve Darby, on count back, with 37 points.

The special prize for last place was given a tumultuous applause as it was won by Calcot Park’s head greenkeeper, Simon Robinson and his partner, Russell Maslen.

In total around 100 golfers took part in the event, including members from Newbury & Crookham, where Evans was also the secretary in the past.

The winners of the November edition from both clubs played each other for the Tom Evans Challenge Tankard, with the title going back to Newbury & Crookham as Nigel Beeley and Andrew Johnston beat the Calcot pairing, Graham Harwood and Frank Summerfield, by 34 points to 31.
