The Vision annual golf day brought even more excitement for golfers this year

 

This year’s golf was a real treat for all golfers; the Vision Charity golf day provided a stunning opportunity to experience the luxury of Stoke Park Golf Club and helped Vision Charity to change the lives of Blind and Visually Impaired Children.  
 
This year there were 3 exciting new features:
 
Beat the Pro
Paul Way former European Open and PGA champion and twice Ryder Cup played on the 11th hole and every player had the opportunity to beat him. 
Congratulations to the following golfers who managed to beat him:
John Rooke
Jan Rooke
Ian Whitfield
Michael Groom
Mike Purnell
Richard Hayter-gare
Zygi kamasa
Tony Blin-Stoyle
Chris Franks
 
Mulligans
Golfers had the opportunity to buy Mulligans to improve their round. This raised allot of additional money for vision on the day and was well received by some of our golfers.
 
Fantasy Golf
The top placed 15 golfers of the Open championship 2010 were put into a draw. Players who entered the competition drew one of those professionals out to be their "fantasy partner". The golfers score was then matched to the final round score from the Open of the player they had drawn to give them an overall pair’s total.
 
Congratulations to the following:
1st Place – Pete Robertshaw (paired with Ricky Fowler)
2nd Place – Richard Hayter-Gare (paired with Luke Donald)
3rd place – Will Vickery (paired with Alvares Quiros)
 

This is how the leader board looked at the end of the day – very close!
