Wentworth Falls Country Club 2020 Handiskins Championship
Neil Griffiths was 'Mr Consistent' in todays Handiskins Final at Wentworth Falls Country Club, as he won or tied 9 of the 8 holes on offer. But it was the $380 jackpot on the 16th that was the one that mattered most and Griffiths pulled clear to take home the title in the fourth year of the competition at Wentworth Falls..
Fellow finalists were also in the money, with Lenny Redmond snaring a nice jackpot on the 18th to finish second ($310) whilst FarquarBoyd ($130) and Joss Bennet ($110) getting a nice earner in the pro shop each. Interestingly, not one of them could hit a green on the two nearest the pin holes - with the money tied on both holes, and opportunity lost to pressure of the contest.
Well done guys, we hope to see you at the Handiskins National Championship at RACV Royal Pines in 2021 on the Gold Coast.
All four finalists received a Bridgestone Golf Cap and fought it out for their share in $1200 of Club Vouchers.
National Championships Qualifications 2021
All four finalists have now also qualified for the national championship and are extended an invitation to contest Australasia's best Amateur golf championship at the 2021 Handiskins National Championship at RACV Royal Pines Resort next May. Given the great spirit contesting today we are sure all four finalists would be able to claim the silverware and be crowned Handiskins National Champion. The 2021 event will be held from Wednesday 28th April – Sunday 2nd May 2021.

Time for Michael Ashford to work on his short game?

After taking out the the nearest the pin challenge in the first round of qualifying, don't be surprised if you see Michael Ashford also spending more time around the Pacific Dunes chipping greens in the coming months. Not only can Michael be contesting the Peter Lehmann Wines Golf Challenge, but he has also earned the the opportunity to contest the Yamaha Chipping competition at the 2021 Handiskins Championship Week.
