PATRICK Prashad returned to winners’ row by winning last Saturday’s Demerara Mutual-sponsored Medal Play Golf tournament at the Lusignan Golf Club on the East Coast of Demarara.

Prashad, who has had a lean season so far, recorded a net 67 from a gross 74 playing off a seven handicap.

Mike Guyadin who recently participated in the Barbados Open secured the second position with a net 69 from a gross 86 playing off a handicap 17.

National Ladies’ champion Christine Sukhram captured the third place with a net 71 from a gross 77 playing off a seven handicap.

Albert Russell won the prize for Nearest to the Pin.

Officials of the LGC expressed gratitude to Demerara Mutual for their continued support in sponsoring tournaments annually and expressed the wish that the insurance company will continue its support in the future.

Meanwhile, the top three finishers are expected to be among a list of more than 20 golfers travelling to neighbouring Suriname next weekend for the RBTT Suriname Open Golf championships.

The latest players who have indicated their interest in competing in the neighbouring republic are William Walker and Gavin Todd.

The list includes Clifford Reis, Ian Gouveia and Alfred Mentore.
