What started out as a perfect May morning for a Medal, slowly turned into a slight mist. That mist crept in over the south, dampening not only competitors, and equipment but also the usually accustomed scores when a medal is up for grabs. Give the conditions, not so many umbrellas were seen, and the course seemed to play well under some duress.
The best of us today, with a handy even par round was Oliver Gross(77), taking his second win for the year. This put’s Oliver into definite contention for the Championship, which is really starting to heat up. Great golf Oliver under testing conditions.
With a slight cricket absence, Stephen Butterfield(83) has taken no time to gather points.(thankfully he doesn’t play a full season!) With equal second place to Mo Sabih(83), and Paul Anderson(90). Paul was fortunate to leave with a free golf ball due to a fine stroke on the 14th.
There were a mass of members who closely followed for points, and with the Tasmanian trip next week, the opportunity for easy points looms large for this weeks players.
Annual trip away was briefly discussed at the conclusion of this weeks round, with three possible locations brought forward. They were Berrigan, Bendigo, and Mansfield. A vote to reduce the selection to two was conducted. Thus leaving Mansfield, and Bendigo to be considered, and voted on Saturday week.
Two matchplay games were completed: Ben Akdag 4 & 3 over Bob McDonald Jan Siemon 1up over Laurie Mannix
Money hole jackpots.
