STUART Mair showed the work he has been doing refining his game to win the last mixed Winter Stableford qualifier at Ross Golf Club.
Mair finished number one on the final score-sheet with an impressive 42 points total.
His victory was the result of hard work and a commitment to improving his game through regular coaching with the Ross Club's PGA professional, Zach Galliford.
He said: “The regular coaching sessions with Zach have been a game-changer for me. It’s not just about the lessons – it’s about building a consistent approach to learning and ultimately improvement.”
Mair returned to golf at the Gorsley based tree-lined Ross Course just two years ago, having been a cricketing stalwart with Ross Cricket Club for many years, now enabling him to combine his active interest in both sports.
During the summer months he can be found umpiring cricket matches at various cricket grounds around the West Midlands.
His umpiring aspirations are to be promoted to the Cricket's Umpires National League panel and then who knows where that could take him.
Another in-form player Robin Looms again excelled to finish runner-up with an impressive 40 points total.
He was followed by two handicapper Alex Duncanson whose 37 points total round included an eagle and three birdies.
There were creditable 36-point performances by Alec Osborn, Anthony Jenkins, Geoff Walsh, Nick Rawlings and Phil Andrews and 35 points totals by Nigel Fullerton and David Dockray.
Former Ross Juniors Captain in 2016 and four-times Ladies Champion, Sophie Price has already made her mark in qualifying for the Barnfield Trophy and is now a 7.4 handicap player.
She will be the sole representative from the Club's Ladies section.
