Steve "Winny" Winyard                  Back to Tour List

 

One of the more easily encouraged and frequently misled golfers. Lived next door to TC for many years and, even now, tries to shift the blame for those all too frequent occasions when he arrives home in a pathetic state.

Sings like an angel.

Hits a good long ball too often in the wrong direction but he knows where the bar is and that's what really matters.

 

 

Handicap:                15

Tours Attended:     Two

Tour Wins :            None, and none expected

Hall of Shame :     None, but there's always next year.

2009 Form

Opened with a reasonable 30 points and followed it with 29 and 33. The dent came at Freslonnierre where a paltry 23 was posted. This meant that the title was probably now beyond his grasp but Winny's golf is explosive, crowd pleasing and high scoring, so anything could happen. 28 points at Dinard was followed by the best round of the week, a 35 pointer at Val Andre. The closing 24 put Winny into joint last place. He was aved by the back nine countback rule and finished 10th. In addition to golf, Winny finds blasphemy a rewarding and sometimes quite satisfying hobby.

2010 Outlook

The spring has sprung, the grass has riz, I wonder where my putter is” is Steve's Marching song. Who knows what 2010 will bring?

Is he the wisest man on tour or has he missed the point?  Only time will tell. In summary, a confident outlook and some new grips will take him far, but will it be far enough?

Napster Forecast: Could be very dangerous but the tight fairways of Freslonnierre have so far proven to be an obstacle too far on those days. Napster predicts 6th or 7th.

Bad Habits:                   Plays like a girl in the rain

Redeeming Features:     Sings like an angel ( Chantez à l'âne, il vous fera des pets. )

Catchphrase :                That would have gone 300 yards if that (tree / bush / lake / shed / telegraph pole / starters hut /  dog) hadn't stopped it.

Contents of Golf Bag:   A nervous 3 wood, ping irons, 6,000 silk cut and 23 lighters.
