IT WAS Clare Walpole who stole the show at Teignmouth Golf Club on the last day of April!

Although taking third place overall in the Stableford competition, Clare, a key member of last year’s victorious Sheelah Creasy squad, scooped the Betty Burnett Salver silverware.

Carding a brilliant 39 points was enough for her to put forward the highest score of her handicap category (playing handicap 27-36) and earned the title for her efforts.

On such a beautiful sunny day, Clare made it look easy with an almost faultless round, going out with 20 points and then coming back with 19 to become the worthy winner.

Clare was only a shot away from the (lower handicap) outright winner Jayne Wayman, who was first with 40pts. Christina Cornish was second on countback, also with 40, and in 3rd place was Jenny Mitchell on 39pts.
