After his recent 3rd place finish in the Sale GC Senior Open partnering Alan Roberts to 46 points Nev Fairclough romped away to victory in the William Lowe Salver with a magnificent 45 points. A fantastic 5 over par gross score gave the incredibly fit 77 year old Neville an incredible 45 points.
Nev had come into the shop after his round to get his clubs re-gripped and I asked him how he had played and when he said 45 as he was leaving I thought I had misunderstood him!!
Well done Nev and happy new handicap.
