THE first round of the Tom Morris, a three month competition, was played on Sunday January 18 at Bude & North Cornwall Golf Club following two weeks of being postponed due to the unusually frosty weather. 32 pairs played in a mixed bag of weather, from hail to sunshine.
The scores were all pretty close so the next round will be interesting.
