Brabazon Trophy This week, Alwoodley Golf Club played host to the 2019 Brabazon Trophy, which is an open stroke-play event for the best amateurs in the world. Two of our members made the journey to Alwoodley to play in this prestigious event, Charlie Thornton and James Cass. The format was four rounds of stroke-play with a cut after the first two rounds. Both lads started with solid rounds, Charlie a 71 and James a 75. James then followed his round with another 75 to, unfortunately, just miss the cut.
Charlie, however, made some great progress with a round of 67 to jump him into the top 10. Having made the cut, Charlie started his third round well, he eventually went on to shoot a solid 70 and lie in fourth position going into the final round.
A tough day on the last day saw Charlie shoot a 74 which finished him in T7th place. This was a fantastic achievement Charlie, well done from all of us at Fulford. A win is around the corner.
