First Time Golfer Janine Grul from Lefroy Valley wins

First Time Golfer Janine Grul from Lefroy Valley wins
Closest to the pin

The Grower2Grower golf day was a tremendous success. As part of the day’s competition, there was a longest drive competition for Men and Women and a closest to the pin that was open.

Considering that there were golfers playing with handicaps as low as 4 and many with under 20 or less – the closest to the pin was won by Janine Grul, Technical Sales & Administrative Manager from Lefroy Valley. This was the first time Janine had played Golf – some may call it a lucky shot but, in my experience, there is no way this was a lucky shot.

This happened to be the penultimate hole for Team Lefroy. During the day, I had heard that Janine, with the help of team member Barry Gray, had watched and listened to the tips from Barry. I was informed Janine’s ball striking was improving throughout the round.

Even though the day was about bringing the growing community together and raising money for the Cancer Society – there was still a competitive element to the golf competition. This was certainly, in terms of the golf the number one shot of the day and it is especially impressive from a first-time golfer – well done Janine.
