Radley <br />

Uppingham <br />

<br />

Hon. Sec. marches up to final green<br />

Uppingham found the bunker off the 19 th tee and<br />

Radley pulled up just short of the bunker on a tricky<br />

downhill lie. Ball moved the ball just 20 yards to the<br />

down slope at the front of the green from where<br />

Ritchie played a majestic chip. Uppingham putting up<br />

to a similar distance – hole halved. There cannot be a<br />

safer pair of hands than our President Christopher<br />

Ball. 2 nd at Woking a long par 3, up hill and the<br />

ground is damp. Uppingham’s hit their tee shot short<br />

left. Having been short with a 3 wood earlier in the<br />

day, Ball took out his driver. Knowing he might have<br />

too much club – he choked down, teed up one club<br />

length back from the tee box and put Radley in a<br />

winning position 15 ft from the pin. Ritchie rolled his<br />

putt up to allow our President the final word. ( I am<br />

sure he would have been very happy not to have the<br />

final word!) Sir Archie, I hope you were watching.<br />
