Venue: Bonalba
Golf & Spa, 29th July 2015
Normally we would arrive at the hottest part of the
year at this time, but this year the sizzling summer temperatures have come
early and again we played in very hot and humid conditions. But who is
complaining? Some members just returning from Northern Europe were happy to get
some sun and warmth again after the chilly weather they encountered back home.
The competition today was Individual Stableford. Congratulations
go to the winner, Tony, for an excellent win.
He was 4 points ahead of second place, Dennis, who played to par on his
low handicap. Tony is now going back to
France for the rest of the summer. Did I
detect some relief on the faces of some of the members when he said his
good-byes? He certainly is a formidable
competitior.As the total of members competing was below 28, only three prizes instead of the normal 5 prizes were given out. Bad luck, Angel and Graham, no wine for you!
