After 18 holes in the hot sun, the top 3, Richard. Cameron and Derrick were off again for a sudden death playoff. The plan was to play 1,2 and 18 for as long as it took. 3 great drives up the first with all approaches on the green. Cameron and Derrick had longish putts, with Richard about 6-8 feet from the hole.
Cameron putted first and left an easy tap in for par. Next up was Derrick who stroked a long putt which somehow just had enough momentum to drop into the hole for a birdie. Richard unfortunately just shaved the edge of the hole and the Championship was won by Derrick.
Well played Derrick who now will represent Bedfordshire in the Champion Senior competition at Woodall Spa in September.
