2017 Jack Kerfoot Northern Cup winner
2017 Jack Kerfoot Northern Cup runner up
Here are a few words from Jason
Firstly I would like to thank England and Wales Blind Golf committee and members for such a great event and also to Russell and his team for the training day. I must have used some of his tips to help me win.
The first hole didn’t go too well as I put the second shot out of bounds and lipped out on a putt for a point, so didn’t score. Was able to put it out of my mind and started scoring fairly well. Magda was using the tips Russell had given her with regards to my putting and alignment, which helped me align to my shots. Always difficult to play a course you don’t know and Magda did a great job of measuring distances to hazards and for her first time in a proper competition she really stood up to the task. Enjoyed the round with my playing partner and well done to Mark and Harry for challenging result.
A great weekend and looking forward to the Chairmans Cup
