THE IJWM
It's not enough to win.Â
Others must lose.
IJWM 2024
Chapter 11: TBC
After Rich Green went back-to-back in Seville, the IJWM contenders are turning their attention to the upcoming Founding Fathers Invitational - an IJWM Tour Event being held at Lingfield on the 22nd September.
20 competitors will go head-to-head for the trophy, which has been vacated by reigning champion Edmund Catt, who dominated the debut Tour with a whopping 41 points.
​
On a 1 round stableford competition, anything can happen and anyone can win.
This is so much more than a game.
This is the IJWM.
IJWM HALL OF CHAMPIONS
RICH GREEN
Manor of Groves, Sawbridgeworth
The biggest tournament on record with 24 competitors, the Manor of Groves was the perfect host for the 9th Annual IJWM where James Brown aimed to retain his title. Elgin Halil, Jason Hamilton, Chris Kowalkowski, Rich Green and Ben McClymont all made their welcome returns to the championship alongside 8 new challengers in Matt Bennett; Laurie Newnes; Jon Roast; Matt Hamilton; Kenan Arif; Jay Warcup; Tom Davies and Chris O’Connor.
The reigning champ fell away quickly as Rich Green and Chris O’Connor showed their quality at the top end of the leaderboard at the end of the first day, accompanied by the high handicap novices Laurie Newnes and Matt Hamilton. They maintained their challenge on day two, shaking off the challenge from the chasing pack, where 3-handicap Rich Green brought home a 2-point lead over 45-handicapper Laurie Newnes, with a record-breaking 73 points to claim his first championship.
