The event was won by Gary Walker (4) whose late season form has seen him shoot up the Order of Merit leader board and into contention for the top spot.
A winner earlier in the year at Slaley Hall on top of multiple top-three finishes, Walker was a worthy winner and he was delighted with his prize:
“To win this event and the Holiday was just the topping on what was another fantastic day. I am really looking forward to the trip to Aphrodite Hills and sampling some of that Cypriot hospitality.
“My thanks go to Andreas from Aphrodite Hills for putting up such a fantastic prize and to Colin and Simon for yet another brilliant day and of course all of the other players who make up this Tour.”
The 5* golf resort in Paphos, Cyprus is a true golfers paradise and one of the tours sponsors that provided one of the best prizes of the year.
Business Development Director, Andreas Vasiliou was on hand to present the prize.
“I was so happy that I was able to be personally present at The Manor House Golf Club and meet the Gtour players.”
“Congratulations to all who took part and I was delighted to present the winner the prize of 3 nights and 2 rounds of golf at Aphrodite Hills Resort, Cyprus.”
The day, which is one of the highlights on the tours calendar couldn’t have gone much better. The weather was fine and the course was in fantastic shape with the undulating dips giving players a tough test all day.
Tour director Colin Astbury couldn’t praise the course enough:
“It was very fitting to hold the Gtour Aphrodite hills Open at Manor House Castle Combe. The course, one of the UK's top 100 is set in very beautiful surroundings with the rise and fall between tee and green on many of the holes mirroring what would be in store for the eventual winner.”
“2010 has been a fantastic year for the tour.” He added, “Our congratulations go to Gary on his win, hopefully his holiday next year doesn't clash with any of the 2011 tour dates.”
The tour moves to De Vere Staverton Park for the final event of the year on Saturday 13 November. With several players still in with a chance to win the Order of Merit it will certainly be a day not to be missed.
