The Blue Mountains Veterans Golfer Association (BMVGA) hosted the 38th Blue Mountains Week of Golf (BMWOG) from 22nd-26th February, playing at Springwood CC, Blackheath GC, Lithgow GC and Wentworth Falls CC.<\/p>\n

Entries were the highest for many years, with 90 players on each of the 3 days which decide the King and Queen of the Mountain, whilst 72 players fronted on the final day for the 2BBB.<\/p>\n

In spite of rainy conditions and a damp track at every course, the Men\u2019s winner Stephen Manson (Leonay GC) would race away from the field to win by a clear 7 shots.<\/p>\n

26-marker Manson was the only player to overcome the difficult conditions on offer in back-to-back rounds, shooting 39 points on Monday at Springwood, then clearing away from any opposition with 42 points at Blackheath on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

With the competition and the King of the Mountain title safely almost certainly wrapped up after 2 rounds, Manson was able to bypass the 3rd round at Lithgow on Thursday, leaving the rest of the field to fight for the minor placings.<\/p>\n

Ladies Queen of the Mountain winner was Wanda Kozinski (Camden GC), whose 2 scores of 33 and 32 were enough to capture this year\u2019s title.<\/p>\n

The dates for the 2022 BMVGA Week Of Golf have now been confirmed and are as follows: 28 Feb at Springwood Country Club, 1 Mar at Leura Golf Club, 3 Mar at Wentworth Falls Country Club, 4 Mar at Blackheath Golf & Community Club.<\/p>\n
