Our Fred Daly team had a tough opponent in Carton House and made tougher by the away draw. So Greystones had three away and two at home.
Representing Greystones at home were Toby Murphy and Jack McGovern while away it was Will O’Riordan, Dylan Holmes and Jamie Anderson.
At home Toby got away to a great start and was 2up after 5 and extended his lead to 5 up after 9 holes Jack was in a tight battle and was one down as he headed down the lane.
In Carton Dylan was also in a close match and was all square after 9 holes. Will was one down through 4 but then 5 of the next 9 holes to be 4 up and looking comfortable. Last up away was Jamie and again he got away to a flying start and was 3 up after 6 and still held that lead after 9 holes.
Toby put the first point on the board with a 5&4 win. Will followed him shortly after with a 4&2 win. Dylan’s match continued to be a very tight affair with never more than a hole in it. Dylan eventually won the point by winning 15 & 17 to win 1up. Jamie followed with a 3 & 1 win after winning the 17th hole. Finally Jack McGovern battled all the way to 18 for a half point in another really close match where there was never more than a hole between the players.
Congratulations to Pete and his team on advancing to the next round.
