Welsh Invitation Pairs 2007

The 6th Welsh Invitation Pairs was held at St Mellons Golf Club on 22-23 September 2007.

This is a very high-quality and enjoyable event, owing a great deal to Patrick Jourdain's meticulous organisation, Ken Richardson's flawless and courteous direction and the hospitality of the various hosts who transport and house the visitors. Many thanks are due to Maggie Pierce in particular for organising a party on the Saturday evening.

An elegant trophy has been presented by Janet de Botton. It will be kept in Wales, and engraved each year with the winners' names.

The winners, for the second time, were Rex Anderson and David Greenwood from Northern Ireland, closely followed by Peter Goodman & Adrian Thomas of Wales.
