ALAN Pearce and John Dowell were the victors at Bude and North Cornwall Golf Club's recent Seniors' Open event, on a day which manager David Walls described as 'special'.

Over 120 golfers took part and the weather was more than kind on a day which Mr Walls said emphasised the club's commitment to supporting local businesses.

"Bude and North Cornwall Golf Club likes to feel a part of the business community of Bude. This is why we offer all of our sponsorship opportunities to business in the town, and we have more than 12 businesses sponsoring our various events," he said.
