Golf - Sunday 22nd November 2009







I rang the Pro Shop this afternoon to see if there were enough players to run a competition as it was such a stinker of a day - about 39 degrees in the shade. I was surprised to find that we had 68 golf tragics that not only played the 18 holes - but played them well, as you will see from the scores. I opted to stay home in the air conditioning and play with my grandson Joel as Peter had absconded to Melbourne. I was assured that the weather on the course was not as bad as it seemed and there was a breeze to help out a bit.
The Event of the day was changed to a Single Stableford for Men and Women as there was a danger of large numbers not completing their rounds due to the heat.
We had 68 starters with visitors from overseas, Everglades and Terrigal.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY as reported to me: Graham Brown had a birdie on the 14th; Bert Brink had a birdie on the 14th; Annie Brink's highlight is that her 'back' is back (after some time out); Anne Stimpson had 5/3 on the 16th and followed that up with a chip in for 5/3 on the 17th; Nigel Asken had a birdie on the 18th to square the keno ticket with the girls; Jan Van Den Berg had 4/4 on the 4th; Lyn Douglas had a birdie on the 15th; Mark Douglas had 2 birdies and Terry Bowditch had 4 birdies making it 7 birdies for the group; Bev Way's group including Paul Lomanz, Lance Bryant & Peter Merchant all had great drives off the 15th tee, then all four of them put their second shot into the water. (Can't help bad luck)
