Brown said the pair worked well together and utilised their level nine handicaps to their advantage, which helped them edge out some of their more esteemed peers.

“We just played one ball at a time, we got a win here and there and we ended up with eight wins and the overall victory,” he said.

Brown also thanked the club for their great hosting and thanked his fellow club members for their support during the tournament.
