THE final round of the Beechworth Golf Club Men's Championships was held last weekend in a lot more pleasant conditions than what we have experienced the last week or so.

Another great field of 18 players assembled for the stroke event.

Also great to see Jackson Wells play in his first 18 hole comp after joining in twilight this year.

The top position for the daily comp was a hotly contested affair, with three players returning scores of 65 nett.

Phil Pelgrim was crowned the winner by way of a countback with 84/19/65 thanks to his great 39 off the stick on the back nine.

Andy Croome claimed second position with 80/15/65 which relegated his passenger in the cart Daryl Rowe to third with 87/22/65.

Balls went to Jacob Howard 76/9/67 and Zane Howard 87/20/67.

Nearest the pins went to Dylan Pool on the 3rd, Zane Howard on the 5th, Andy Croome on the 10th and Josh Carr on the 17th.
