2020: Indiv. Stableford Q (26.2.)

Sadly, the Winner is missing from the photo

Venue:  Bonalba Golf & Spa, 26 February 2020

Our competition today was Individual Stableford which qualified for all Society competitions including handicap adjustments.  We had 41 members playing plus one guest on this lovely warm and sunny day, using up all of our tee-time allowance.
Today's results were very diverse, ranging from 42 points at its best to 20 points at the bottom of the table. The winners’ list demonstrated well the different nationalities which make up our Society and our congratulations go to Edi and Jan from England, Greta from the Netherlands and Patrick and Eric from France.

We also had the additional prize of John and Jan’s Hidden Holes which goes to a player who is not in the main prizes.  They had nominated holes 2, 6, 8, 14, 15 and 17, a mixture of par 3, 4 and 5’s. Congratulations to Gordon who sadly will be leaving us in the summer to move to France.

Summarizing the results:
Hidden Holes:  Gordon Burton with 13 points, beating Tony on hole 17.
