Super Seniors V St Annes

On a beautiful sunny Monday morning for golf Sutton’s Super Seniors(SS) (over 70s) battled against St Annes . There were 2 Matches at Home and 2 matches Away

First Match out at Home was two stalwarts of Sutton GC Frank Kennedy & John (Doc) Taylor. This match had everything in it chip ins ,birdies and a lot more . But after losing the 10th to go one down they came back at next hole to level match and never looked back after that and ran out winners 2 up.

2nd Match out at Home were two Former Captains Alan Levey and Robert Sinnott. Robert had looked after the SS for the last couple of years and took a back seat and did not play. So now he was ready to play. It was a nip and tuck sort of match all level after 9. A couple of Birdies from Alan and Robert on the back 9 gave Sutton the advantage and they were shaking hands on 17th for 3/1 win.

Away Matches

First Match away was two warriors of Sutton Gerry Mc Inerney & Roddy Cooper. The Lads were up against a very strong pairing who birdies a few holes. But Sutton Lads stuck with them and only lost on 16th Hole

Match 2 Away was another experienced pairing Joe Comyn & Declan O Callaghan . The St Annes pairing were a very experienced partnership and were low handicappers in their earlier years and now playing off 16/18 . One of the St Annes guys had played in the Barton Cup Final in 1995 which they won and was wearing the jumper to prove it. 30 yrs with same jumper amazing... Sutton Lads were going toe to toe with St Annes and were only one down with 3 to go . But unfortunately could not get back and lost on 17th . Great Match

Final Result was 2 all.

Next Match is against Baltray Co Louth on 7th April 2025.
