Paul leads the way in Golfer of the Year

THE golfing season has reached the halfway stage.

It is interesting to have a look at who are the leaders in the Golfer of the Year points table.

Here are the top twenty after Captain’s Day:

Paul Simpson 216 points; Adam McGregor 210; Gary McCartney 210; John Convery 200; John McCormac 176; Philip Mallon 170; Garreth Moody 168; Derek Crory 160; Dane Ward 156; Robert Clydesdale 145; Scott Nelson 145; Cathal O’Neill 135; Andrew Quinn 132; Jeffrey Brown 130; John McDowell 130; Martin McAleenan 130; Declan Barry 129; Cecil Wilson 128; Stuart Hunter 120; Sean M Quinn 120 and Neil Diamond 120.

Those names will change dramatically between now and the end of September, that’s for sure. But it still must be rewarding to see your name in the top 20 at this stage.
