GDP Masters What A Day
Honoring a Legend
What an absolute blast the annual GDP Masters was!
This fantastic event, held in memory of the club's incredible founder, Graham Pain, was a resounding success. Graham and his brother started the club back in 1993, and this event truly captures the spirit of fun, camaraderie, and giving back that Graham would have loved.
With 72 golfers teeing off at 1 pm in a shotgun start, the day was filled with laughter, smiles, and some seriously impressive golf.
The course was in immaculate condition, and the scores reflected the hard work that went into preparing it.
A huge congratulations to the winners, who were decked out in their very own green jackets – a tradition that always makes the event even more special.
But what made the day shine was the generosity of spirit from everyone involved. A massive thank you to Sara and the family for covering the costs of prizes and food, meaning every single penny raised goes directly to the amazing charities, Guts UK and St Richards Hospice in Worcester.
Special mentions all round to Graham's brother Rob, his brother-in-law Mike, and friends Matt and Bevan – they might have had a slight misstep with the rules on those yellow tees, but they added to the day's lighthearted vibe!
Full results are below, so go take a look. And mark your calendars for June 5th, 2026 – you won't want to miss the next GDP Masters! Let's make it even bigger and better next year!
