Golf - Sunday 29th March 2009


































The Event of the day was a 2 Ball Team plus Singles mixed men and ladies. It was also the qualifying round for the NSW Mixed 4BBB (top three pairs qualifying for the district play off)and the qualifying round for the NSW Men's Fourball Championships 4BBB (top three pairs qualifying for the district playoff)
We had 109 starters with 8 visitors from Castle Hill, Everglades, Magenta Shores, Toronto, Tuggerah Lakes, Windsor and Wyong.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY AS REPORTED TO ME: Warren Gray and Mary Bromwich were (as in had been) having a lovely day until they reached the 5th hole. Warren hit his drive off of the wrong tee marking and was about to be followed by his other male playing partner. Mary warned Warren's playing partner before he hit his shot- Warren suffered a two shot penalty (not happy Mary); we had the pleasure of having four lady visitors today, one of whom won our ladies singles event today (Denise Hopkins from Windsor). Her playing partner Tina, at the 3rd hole managed to fall, fully clothed into the dam and still came in smiling, (no photo of the fall - sorry!) as a side interest one of these ladies, Dawn Robertson, played squash at Wally Johnson's Squash Courts in Sydney and for a time had worked at the courts ; Peter Martin had birdies on the 2nd and 10th; George Foster birdied the 1st and 2nd (end of story George tells me) George's playing partners Kay and Col Adams along with George all birdied the 2nd - Vicki tells me she got an honest 6/2; Cheryl Davison got the nearest the pin on the 8th; Doris Morris birdied the 8th to score 2/5; Bruce & Leanne Binns blitzed in with a 50 point score for the mixed 2BBB; Rosalie Dyer had three nice 3 pointers on the back 9; my highlight was a par 4/4 on the 9th.
A big cherio to Fay Bailey who is laid us with an injured leg. Speedy recovery Fay!
