Greystones Editor

Hard luck to the Eamonn Darcy team who were narrowly beaten by Powerscourt in the final of this competition yesterday morning up in Dun Laoghaire.

On the day, both our foursomes pairs won their matches, David Byrne & Dylan Holmes came from two down after two ( and very nearly three down after three save for a seventy foot putt hole out from Dylan ) to win on seventeen.  Our second pair saw Eddie Lonergan get a new partner this week, Diarmaid McGabhann was unavailable for selection,  Emma having given birth to their baby boy on Tuesday – CONGRATULATIONS to both.  Chris Boylan was paired with Eddie and they played very steady golf to win on sixteen.  Adam Packman lost his singles match on fifteen but all still looked good for Greystones with Shane O’Connor all square and Daniel O’Byrne one up on the sixteenth tee. Unfortunately it wasn’t to be our day and both Shane and Dan lost their matches on the eighteenth.

Roll on 2022 …..

Prize giving for the Men’s 2021 season took place yesterday evening in the clubhouse, hosted by Captain Philip Pratt.

Congratulations to all the winners of the 2021 season.

Congratulations to our Eamonn Darcy team who beat Bray in the semi final of the 2020 Eamonn Darcy Trophy yesterday after a very tight affair indeed.

The match, which was played in Dun Laoghaire yesterday morning saw all five matches go at least as far as the eighteenth.

First out playing singles, was Chris Boylan who lost on 18 while Shane O’Connor who played in the second singles match position won his match on 18.

Our first foursomes  pair of David Byrne & Diarmaid McGabhann had to go to the 19th to clinch their match and our second foursomes pair of Eddie Lonergan & Brian Frawley lost on 18.

The match decider was Adam Packman whose match continued to the 23rd hole ( including an up & down on the 22nd that you wouldn’t see on Tour ) before he claimed victory for the team.

The final will be played next Sunday in Dun Laoghaire at 08.30 when our lads will take on Powerscourt who beat the hosts yesterday ( Dun Laoghaire ) by a margin of 3/2 to reach the final.

All supporters welcome.
