Chesterfield Golf Club duo set to tee off for England at Royal St George’s
Bradley Rhodes and Matthew Elks finished in the top two places when the Walton venue staged a competition in April as part of the R&A’s 9 Hole Challenge.
Their impressive stableford scores of 24 and 23 points bettered those of competitors from scores of other golf clubs across the country and they will now team up to represent England on Saturday – five days before the Open starts on the same course.
