Will Chambers wins Redbourn Club Championship
11:06am Tuesday 24th August 2010 in
Teenager Will Chambers has claimed his third consecutive Club Championship at Redbourn Golf Club after a narrow victory.
The 17-year-old, from Harpenden, shot five-over par in his two rounds to win by two shots from Chris Parker, with everything hinging on the 18th green on a blustery second day at Redbourn.
After a stunning one-under par 69 on the first day of the championship, Chambers, who plays off scratch, found things a little tougher during the second round as the wind conditions made things a little harder for golfers on Redbourn's 18-hole Ver Course.
Chambers said: "It's a great feeling to make it three in a row. It was very close in the end and the weather made it tough, but the course was fantastic and the greens were in amazing condition."
