MICHAEL FLYNN CLARET JUG.

On Sat last the 6th we held the knockout stage of the above competition.  There were 16 players remaining in same after the first round two weeks ago. A draw was made before play on Sat morning and the knockout stages began. After three rounds of 18 hole matchplay the two still standing were Steven Ruane and John Browne. The final of same will be held on Tuesday evening  the 9th at 6. 30 and we wish both John and Steven the best of luck in same. Please note change of date from Mon to Tuesday evening (as Co.
