Venue: Bonalba
Golf & Spa, 24 June 2015
We had an early start today for our Individual
Stableford competition. Even the “late
risers” among our members had to agree that it was a good idea as it meant an
earlier finish and we were able to avoid the hot temperatures of the early
afternoon.
We welcomed backl Greta , who would normally be in
Holland at this time of the year but she and her daughter decided to have a
break from the cold and the rain and came over for a short holiday. And
although she had to borrow clubs, she came in with a very credible result, some
of it due to some very good putting with “Peter’s putter” and she also shot a
birdie on hole 9 which has stroke index 3.
Congratulations go to the winner, John Brooks. He has been in good form lately. Keep up the good work, John!
The k/o match of the week was between Michael Davison
and Chris van Bemmelen and Chris, who also has been in excellent form recently,
came out the winner. There was some consolation for Michael who came away with
three other prizes plus a golf ball for his birdie.
The guest prize went to Marleen. This will be the last
guest prize for her as she will join the Society again in July.
Summarising the results:
The two special prizes, sponsored by our Captain, for
the two longest drives went to
Gay Brooks and Michael Davison.
