Venue: Bonalba Golf & Spa
This Wednesday we played our Monthly Medal. The attendance was quite low with 18 cards being processed, 11 in Division 1 and 7 in Division 2.
The low attendance merited only two prizes in each Division, instead of the usual three.
Special congratulations to Richard, the only player under par.
We were lucky with the weather as temperatures had dropped back to around max.30 degrees from the high 30’s the previous day.
At prize giving, John Garnett treated us to a glass of bubbly to celebrate his recent birthday. We wish him many more happy years of playing golf. He certainly was the king of the par three’s today.
The summary of today’s competition is as follows:
Nearest the pin:
Hole 4 Keith Preston
Hole 8 John Garnett
Hole 11 Chris van Bemmelen
Hole 14 John Garnett
There were 3 twos, John also putted in on holes 11 and 14. The 3rd two was from Richard, also on hole 14.
