Prestbury’s Joan Crouch Makes History with Wild Cup Victory at Age 90.
PRESTBURY Golf Club’s Joan Crouch has become the oldest ever winner of the club’s prestigious Wild Cup.
The 90-year-old scored an impressive 33 Stableford points in the 13-hole event for ladies aged 60 and over.
Prestbury lady captain Caroline Harrison-Crofts said:
Joan, who was 90 in February, plays golf at least once a week in the 9-hole competition, and she has a Handicap Index of 38.8.
“She normally walks the nine-hole competitions but decided that 13 holes at Prestbury is ‘a bit far’ and decided to use a buggy for the first time and it certainly paid off as she beat 28 younger ladies in the competition, and we were all delighted to see her presented with the Wild Trophy!”
