Venue: Bonalba Golf & Spa
Today was the first competition under the new Captain Richard Davis. His proposal for 2023 is on the blog under “Announcements”.
Being the first Wednesday in the month, 24 members competed for the February Medal (Maximum Score) which qualified for handicap and Society competitions.
A special mention and congratulations to Jan for an outstanding round of golf.
For today’s competition there were only 2 nearest the pin prizes, in consideration of the budget for 2023. However, from next week we are again awarding 4 nearest the pin, 2 of which will now be sponsored by Brian Hines and Graham Sutton. Thank you to Brian and Graham for their kind generosity.
Another change is that Bob Crow, who previously sponsored the 2’s on the par 3, is now going to sponsor “best 9 holes” which can be best back 9, front 9, or selected 9 holes as per the decision on the day. However, we will continue to announce the twos achieved.
The summary of today’s competition is as follows:
Best back 9 – Moe Farouky with a net 33.
Nearest the pin:
Hole 4 Michael Davison
Hole 8 Richard Davis
Today there were no twos recorded.
