Team UAE holds narrow lead against Team Qatar in thrilling Men’s Championship showdown at Ajman’s Al Zorah Golf & Yacht Club

A strong front nine ensured Jumeirah Golf Estates Lady Captain Evelyn Downham and her partner Carl Downham won the monthly Jumeirah Pairs by The Lounge Spa over the Fire course.
Evelyn and Carl produced the winning score of Net 67 (-5) to earn compensation for losing out on the prizes due to a count back in last week’s edition of the Thursday Curry Club at JGE’s Earth Course.
They scored particularly well on the front nine with a score of net 33 (-3).
In second place was the pair of Simon Brind and Andrew Parsons with a score of Net 69 (-3).
They had two net eagles on the front nine which put them clear of the third-place duo of Cavit Yildiz and Umar Farooq with a score of Net 70 (-2).
The format was Pairs Greensomes where each player teed off and the best shot was selected. From that point, the pair played alternate shots until the hole was completed.
There were two on-course competitions, with Daniel Gribbin winning the Nearest the Pin on hole 14 by hitting his shot to 4.5 feet from the flag. Unfortunately, no one managed to beat Tommy Fleetwood Academy Teaching Professional Joe O’Connor hit his shot to eight feet on the 8th hole.
However, a random draw was held with all participants and once again Daniel Gribbin made off with the prize after being lucky enough to be drawn out.
