MARIA Sheridan highlighted her best round since returning to the fairways with a two.
Sheridan shot 94-25-69, including a two on the 14th, to win the women’s net.
Scoring over the week was otherwise average, influenced heavily by the weather.
Shaun Pahina will probably never win the men’s net again with his Sunday effort of 94-17-77.
Qualifying for the men’s club championships continues. Players have until Tuesday, July 27, to post an 18-hole score. A player must designate it is a qualifying round before playing by getting his scorecard stamped by the secretary or signed by a committee member or Evan Parkin.
Play is off the blue tees for the senior, intermediate and junior divisions while endeavour qualifying is from the white tees.

“A TOUGH day at the course but still marginally more fun than working.”
So said Springs stalwart Mark Higham after strong winds buffeted the course and kept scoring down on Sunday.
It didn’t, however, stop Nehe Dewes from disposing of Ian Logan 6 and 5 in a Makarika Cup match.
Round 1 is scheduled for August 1 but matches can be played before that.
Hazel Miratana defeated Robyn Ngatai in a Women’s Handicap Cup second-round match and Miratana’s 35 points also won the women’s stableford.
Pete Ngarimu’s 73 was good enough for the men’s net honours on countback.
P Ngarimu 73, B Clark 73.
H Miratana 33, H McClutchie 25.
