A happy bunch and rightly so |
Venue: Bonalba
Golf & Spa, 21 March 2018
This Wednesday we played an Individual Stableford competition. The round also qualified for the Campbell
Lamont League. There was a turn-out of
36 members and on this occasion no guests had been invited to play.
Looking at the scoreboard, there were some excellent results. Some of our members clearly were “in the
zone” when everything went well and made the game of golf look easy. Moe in particular was well into the zone. His score of 44 points comes on the back of a
very good score last week and has duly been noted by our Handicap Secretary,
who incidentally came second and, on another day, could have won easily. Greta, our Captain, with 37 points, is coping
very well with the pressures that come with her Captaincy and does not allow it
to interfere with her golf. Roger and
Stan, in 4th and 5th place, again show that they are very
steady players. Congratulations to all
for an exeptional round of golf!
The ladies put their stamp on the Nearest to Pin competition today. They were nearest on all four par 3’s and and also bagged the 2’s prizes.
It was also the day for John and Jan’s Hidden Hole prize. They nominated
holes 2, 7, 13 and 17 which they considered to be difficult holes. They proved
to be right as, among others, there was a score of 2 points in total. Well done, Luc Verheagen who had the best score
of all players not in the main prizes.
Summarising the results as follows:
John and Jan’s Hidden Holes: Luc Verhaegen with 9 points.
