The competition on Wednesday, 28 October was Individual Stableford which qualified for all ongoing Society competitions and also for the Worldwide Handicap. 29 cards were processed on Master Scoreboard, and in addition, we welcomed one guest, Trish from Cork in Ireland. Trish has now been playing with our Society a few times and is hoping to become a member in the new year.
There were some very good results today, the first five scores were par and better and just over half the players came in with over 30 points.
Edi Rogers, whose putting skills are never in doubt, proved it once again by making two birdies on the par 3’s. Interestingly, he did not birdie the one hole where he was nearest to the pin. The pins were dominated by Stan who was nearest on both par 3’s on the front 9. His good play carried on, finishing third overall, just ahead of Jean-Paul. Pascale, his wife, did one better and tied with Doris for the top two places. Greta, who is hardly ever out of the top group, was making up 5th place.
Congratulations to everyone on the winners’ board, and even if I say so myself – well played!

On this Wednesday, the first one in November, we continued, as per calendar, with our Monthly Medal competitions. 22 members and 2 guests were competing. The weather forecast was for rain and even thunder, but luckily, apart from a light shower at the beginning of our round, it stayed dry with very pleasant temperatures.
Congratulations to Jim Hurley, our winner today. It was very close for 2nd, 3rd and 4th place and the places had to be decided from the scores on the back 9. This week it was Erik Paesmans who putted well, adding two par 3 birdies to his very good score. Greta had the best gross score of 80.
