The BOP Men's Golf Team finished 2nd at the recent interprovincials in Gisborne. It was an amazing week for the realtively young team who were the only unbeaten team heading in to the final.

During the week the Bay players, who are all in the Golf Fusion Academy showed immesnse courage and belief to amass some impressive 5-0 wins as well as some amazing comebacks.

Early in the week against Tasman the Bay produced what coach Jay Carter said was one of the best days he'd had at an interprovincial.

"With four holes to go against Tasman if you said we'd win I'd have had you committed, even a half would have had you committed. But it was an outstanding comeback, just huge, particularly from Craig.

"I was walking off the 7th green with Landyn and heard Walshy [manager Aaron Walsh] and Sam yelling from 300m away when Craig sank that putt. It was a pretty emotional afternoon and we might be young but they played as a team."

However Southland were too strong for the young Bay of Plenty side who eventually lost 3-2 after beating Canterbury 3 and a half 1 and a half in the morning.
