Vincent Coffie came out fiery and intense with a 2-under- par 70 in the Men A Division during the August Taysec medal for a defining first place finish. A ‘tour’ de force has perhaps begun for Vincent after his June 1-under par 71 placed him in the 2012 medal winners circle.

During the August event, Vincent was 3 over heading towards hole no. 4 but hat trick of birdies on par-5 fourth, par-5 fifth and par-6 fourth delivered a level par on the front nine. The back nine witnessed series of pars with a birdie on hole 13 and a stunningly assuring eagle on hole 15 and a bogey on hole 17 to close out a remarkable round.

Vincent’s swing was refreshingly fluid with accompanying putting accuracy to maintain a momentum for future laurels.

However, in the Ladies A Division, Victoria Adjei got off to a steady back nine play after a daunting front nine was marred with streaks of bogeys and double bogeys. A birdie on par -3 sixteenth and chain of pars laced with a double bogey on hole 18 pieced together for a net score of 73 off 15. Jessica Tei trailed second place on a net score of 74 off 12.
