ARDEE GOLF CLUB - SEPTEMBER 2021

Welcome to the first edition of  The Lake Newsletter. Here we will try to bring  the latest news from our club to our members and visitors. 
The weather has been favourable for golfers over the past few months and as a result our golf has been very enjoyable. Weather conditions have also resulted in the course being in an excellent condition. Our course is maintained to a high standard by our dedicated staff who are supported by Carr Golf. 
Our main golfing season is now drawing to a close with a very successful Captains day being held over two weekends 21st/22nd and 28th/29th August. Captain Eric McKeevers prize was won by Joe McArdle with total of 132 over the two weekends. For further photos of Prize giving visit our Photo/Video gallery

Lady Captains Monica Watters day was held over two days - Wednesday August 4th & Saturday August 7th. Unfortunately the weather was very unfavourable on the Saturday with heavy downpours. However the ground staff made valiant efforts to keep greens clear of water and the competition was completed despite the weather. The overall winner was Annette Durnin with a score of 140 and a very successful prize giving was held on Saturday night

BRENDAN LAWLOR REACHES NUMBER 1
There are not many golf clubs who can boast a world No.1 ranked player as emanating from their ranks, however Ardee G.C. is such a Club.
Our own Brendan Lawlor came up through the junior programme and represented AGC at many levels before leaving to pursue a professional career in golf. Brendan now competes on the European Disabled Golfers Association Tour (EDGA) and has achieved back-to-back victories in July at the EDGA Cazoo Open and then the ISPS HANDA World Disability Invitational.
Brendan, who is seen regularly around the club, is still just 24 and has now reached the Pinnacle of the WR4GD rankings on foot of his recent performances.
We wish Brendan a long and successful career and hope he will continue to be a regular and welcome visitor at Ardee Golf Club.
Well done Brendan
