Cloverhill Golf Club - Medal for two in a row Barry

Having made his long awaited visit to the winners enclosure when he captured the Easter weekend singles stableford last weekend Barry McKeown kept his rich vein of form going by capturing the April Monthly Medal. Sunday's play was blessed with the best day of the year to date and it was reflected in the playing numbers which stretched the timesheet beyond the usual playing times. Barry had a nett 63 to edge out Mark Hughes who had a 64 just ahead of the 65's from Graham McNally and Anthony Hillen
