LAST Saturday saw Eve-sham's men's May Medal held on an extremely tough course playing long with unforgiving rough penalising any wayward shots.

However, three players in Division One shot identical sub-par rounds and could only be separated on countback with Derek Parker emerging victorious from Alan Askew and the increasingly consistent Dan Haines.

Division Two honours went to Chris Parn whose winter practice endeavours are paying dividends and also saw him improve from his third place in the previous medal.

A handicap reduction was duly administered again.

Results - Division One: 1 D Parker 82-11-71 (cb); 2 A Askew 78-7-71 (cb); 3 D Haines 76-5-71. Division Two: 1 C Parn 92-20-72; 2 S Bidwell 93-18-75; 3 D Nightingale 91-16-75.
