Golf - Thursday 2nd September 2010





































We had some lovely gentle rain overnight & again later in the day which was just what our greenkeeper was wanting to water in the newly sanded greens. Most of the girls got their golf game in without getting too wet and the singles knockout matches were played early so they were not effected with the rain. Once again we had some great scores coming in with 38 points not even winning a ball.
The Event of the day was a Single Stableford Over the Field and we had 22 starters with visitors Noela Hibbert, Margaret Thorp & Denise Barr from Terrigal.
RESULTS:
WINNER: Lyn Cruickshanks - 44 points
RUNNER UP: Helen Stuart - 41 points on a countback
3RD: Lesley Gregory - 41 points
BALL COMPETITION:
Annette Dunk - 39 points
NEAREST THE PIN 14TH:
0 TO 30: Judy Ruitenberg
31 TO 45 (Second Shot): Lyn Cruickshanks
BALLS WENT TO : 39 points (neat)
AWCR: 73 (36 points)
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY as reported to me: Jan Walker had a birdie 4/5 on the 6th, scored 38 points (but did not win a ball); Sharon Anderson hit a huge drive off the 15th tee which was almost in danger of going in the water; Helen Stuart had a great 41 points - the best she has played for a while; Lesley Gregory also played well for her 41 points. The course has got a lot of run even after last night's rain which has reflected in all the good scoring and traditionally there are always some big scoring during green maintenance - I think we find it easier to putt through the sand as we just have to hit at the hole without any need to "read" the green.
RESULTS OF THE SINGLES KNOCKOUT:
Julie Hazzard Vs Bev Adams - Winner: Julie Hazzard
Judy Verlander Vs Chris Dekker - Winner (on forfeit) : Judy Verlander
Norma Cubis Vs Fay Bailey - Winner: Norma Cubis
Wendy Stapleton Vs Sue Hutton - Winner Wendy Stapleton
Congratulations to all the winners and commiserations to the losers.
