Prashad storms to victory in Trophy Stall Golf Classic

In somewhat predictable fashion, Lusignan Golf Club (LGC) Captain Patrick Prashad finished two shots clear of the second- and third-place finishers in Saturday’s Trophy Stall golf classic played at the historic Club.
Prashad’s handling of the very fast greens is legendary at the LGC; his ability to play a classic bump and run shot is what separated him and made him the favourite going in and he did not disappoint. He played smart golf, leaving his lay-up shots in the right positions to attract the hole. Prashad was the only golfer in the field to finish at level par-70. The course got the better of everyone else who all went over their course handicaps.
The winners’ row comprised: Prashad (HC 10, Gross 80, Net 70); 2nd – Satrohan Tiwari (HC 12, Gross 84, Net 72); 3rd – Guillermo Escarraga (HC 20, Gross 92, Net 72); 4th – Kassim Khan (HC 5, Gross 78, Net 73) and 5th – Miguel Oviedo (HC 19, Gross 92, Net 73). Consolation prizes were awarded to Mike Gayadin with a best net front-9, Mahesh Shivraj for a best net back-9, Rohan Albert for the longest drive and Parmanand “Max” Persaud for nearest to the flag.

The trophy presentation was one filled with praise for the Club Captain for his stellar performance on a challenging day along with much praise for leading sponsor Trophy Stall. Trophy Stall is the leading seller of a massive variety of trophies and sporting memorabilia in Guyana and more recently, at a new store in the borough of Queens, New York. Trophy Stall hosted this tourney as the first of two golf tournaments to celebrate this milestone.
