2018: Indiv. Stableford (19.12.)




Venue: Bonalba Golf & Spa, 19 December 2018

Our last competition for this year was an Individual Stableford.  Some of our members had already gone back to their home country for the festive season, so the attendance was down to 24 members and 2 guests.

It was a great day to play golf.  The temperature went up to 20 deg and there was hardly any wind.  These ideal conditions seemed to be reflected in the scoring.  There were some exceptional results and the top five players all came in with scores better than par.  Stan surpassed everyone with 42 points, closely followed by Michael and Jan whose scores had to be separated on count-back.  Both scored 22 points and 19 points over 9 holes, but Michael had his 22 points on the back 9 and therefore was awarded 2nd place. 
Congratulations to everyone on the winners’ board for some excellent rounds of golf.

That only leaves us to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and good golfing in 2019!
