The 2026 Men’s Club Championships concluded on Saturday 23 May in cool, damp conditions. Congratulations to Mark Johnston who, once again, is our Club Champion after rounds of 71, 71, 70 and 77. Mark had a slight stumble in the final round, but fortunately, his excellent play over the first three rounds gave him enough of a buffer from the chasers.
