Sarrau Soars to Breadsall Masters Cown

At the biggest annual event of the TNGS, Pierre Sarrau carried off the title with 2 days of great golf. The amiable Frenchman shattered the Moorland Course with a blistering 46 points as calm conditions helped the 19 strong field to shoot low. 5 players ended with more than 40 points and the pre drinking golf was of the highest order.

The honorary Northern Monkeys Simon Bedford and Lee Parkinson showed up fantastically well with 2nd and 3rd with Neil I'm not Ralph's brother Simper coming in 4th - Chris Branton was 5th with 41 points!


Day 2 the TNGS moved on to the tougher Priory course - and with scores lower Richard Johnson backed up his partner in crime Pierre to come through with 36 points.



The two days results provided interesting reading and were added to the OOM.

Monners sneaks ahead in the OOM with Branton playing catch up and the Northern Monkeys needing to to visit the Southerners to challenge for the title.

All in all another awesome weekend away for the TNGS boys...
