Another pleasantly calm and sunny late autumn day awaited us this morning
as we were getting ready to play our competition. It was an Individual Stableford which also
qualified for the CL League. We had 38 members
playing Stableford which included 4 members who were also playing their Singles
k/o matches. Both the Hurleys were involved in the matches, Kate against Chris
and Jim against Angel. Congratulations
to the winners Jim and Chris, both seemed to have had the extra motivation as
they also ended up in first and second place in the individual competition. Brian
Hines had equal points with Chris but on the back 9 Chris had 4 pars compared
to Brian’s 3 pars and that helped him with scoring a better back 9.
This was also the day of the Vice-Captain’s Monthly
Prize. As usual, the actual prize was
not revealed until the prize giving. This
month it was based on the best front nine of anyone who was not in the first
five. The winner was Brian Wakeley who in fact had the best front nine of
everybody including the first five.
Summarising the results:
The Guest Prize was won by Young Nino with 28 points
off 1 hcp.Vice-Captain’s Monthly Prize: Brian Wakeley with 21 points.
