2023 Don Ross Derby - Jack Jenner
Listen now
Description
Jack Jenner is the creator and still manages the Don Ross Derby at Royal Colwood.   This event is one of the most enjoyable tournaments on the schedule for the Men’s Division.  It consists of 2– nine hole matches on the Friday and then 3 – nine hole matches on the Saturday; these are played in 2 man teams taking the best ball score.   The Flight winners at the end of the 5 matches (and two wild card teams) get to compete in the Derby “horse race” portion of the day.  The horse race takes place over 4 holes of elimination (in an alternate shot format) and the remainder of the field places their bets and follows along through the 4 holes. Jack and his partner Kent Campbell are previous winners of the Derby!   Sound editing done by Todd Mason.
