Helen Leigh set a blistering pace to win Heydon Grange's Ladies June Trophy with 49 points, earning her a six shot handicap cut!
This inspired her husband Tony when it came to the Men's Club Championship, in which he carded a first round net 72 to be one shot off the pace in the net competition.
He more than held his nerve in the second round over the Europro course with a net 70, only to be denied at the finishing post on countback by Heydon's leading junior David Jolley.
Playing off 12, a mediocre first round of net 79 left Jolley seemingly out of the running - but he came storming back with a gross 75 (net 63) in the second round - the best gross or net round in the entire field over both days

It was Brushett's seventh title as club champion in nine years, after two years just missing out on top spot.
