Waltham Windmill’s team of Lesley Burton, Jenny Holborn, Josie Hallam and Liz Wride emerged victorious with an unassailable total of 80 points.

The Laceby Manor team of Sue Guilliatt, Jane Greenough, Kim Marsh and Gemma Cooling had to settle for second, falling just one point short.

* In Tuesday’s 18-Hole Silver Stableford, Ann Walker stole the show, with her 35-point total enough to hold off Val Pattinson’s challenge, who was a point shy.
