October Medal played in September! How the laws of physics bow down to our Ivanhoe Golf club. Due to the NRL final this week being played, a shotgun start is scheduled for this weeks round. Tee time is half past seven. Alas. The future has already been played out, and if your a betting man for these last few days of September, put your house on Rodger Clarke for the October Medal!
WIth the course in superb condition, long roll on the fairways, quick, and true on the greens. One would assume a very competitive medal. Well, with only three members playing to par or better, and then streaking the field. We can all feel a little easier in the knowledge that the rough will be cut for this weeks Stableford round.
A welcome return to the winners circle this week, saw Rodger Clarke(86) take his third win for the season after a tear away collection of championship points early in the year. Rodger’s win comes only a week after his cart buddy returned, who also claimed success!(what No. cart was it Rodger?) Well done Rodger, valuable points keeping you well in the hunt for both titles.
Ken Grist (84)takes second place with a fantastic stroke round, extremely unlucky to be beaten only by one stroke with 65 net! Benananan Akdag(81)receives third, while his playing partner Stefan Belevski, and MalcolmAdey finshed only three strokes behind(69 net) for joint forth.
Money hole for the round went to Rodger, while the ball went to Andrew Blight
