More Denhy Sensations

GOLF

More sensational scoring was seen at Mt Denby at the week-end in the fourth round of the club handicap. Four players finished with a net 67. six under par for the course, 12 played under their handicap and six finished on terms with bogey. D. R. Kemp won on a count-back from E. Dyer, E. Fairley and A. Sargent. Kemp's 84 off the stick was a meritorious effort as he started the season on a handicap of 24 and has since reduced to 15. Kemp was favourite for the junior championship, but was unexpectedly beaten by Farrell in the second round. Dyer stood a great chance of winning the event until he took a six instead of bogey three for the last hole. As it was, he was one of the four to finish with 67 net.
