2023: Monthly Medal (6.9.)



Venue:  Bonalba Golf & Spa

 

 This Wednesday we played our September Medal Maximum Score which qualified for handicap adjustments.  As members were returning from their summer break, we had a good attendance of 26 members and 1 guest.

 

Normally Medals are sponored by Michael Davison but on this occasion our sponsors  were Tony and Heidi Dewavrin.

 

When Tony and Heidi offered sponsorship for this Medal competition, I am sure they did not expect to both win their respective Divisions, and not only that, they both had the same magnificent score of minus 7.  As they were the sponsors, they decided to award the prizes to the second and third places, to the delight of Derek and Graham.

Congratulations to everyone, and especially to Tony and Heidi.

 

As with the last medal, we again had a lunch at the Bonalba Restaurant, which was taken up by 22 members and guests.
