Mid Sussex Golf Club men and ladies contest Club Championships
The men set off early on the Saturday with the ladies tees following on in almost perfect golfing conditions.
The ground staff had left areas of long grass making additional hazards to the bunkers and water. Pin positions were changed for the second 18 hole round on Sunday with the weather also making a change for the worse.

The overall Ladies Club Champion was Kate Watts who scored an excellent gross 82, nett 68, on the first day finishing with a gross 169, nett 141, over the two days.
