The inaugural Golfing Wales Challenge Cup was run in stunning weather conditions on the fabulous links of Machynys Peninsula Golf Club.
The wind was ever present, as it always is at the Nicklaus links, making for some tough holes. To add to that the greens were running slick and true and the rough was punishing.
All in all, the scoring was great in the conditions with some fabulous golf.

We can honestly say that the first Challenge Cup was most definitely a Challenge.
