2014: Indiv. Stableford (20.8.)

Venue : Bonalba Golf &Spa, Wednesday, 20 August 2014
With Graham, our Captain on holiday in Ireland, it was Luc, our Vice-Captain, who organised this week’s competition.  Having played a team game last week, for this week he had arranged for us to play Singles Stableford.  There were 24 members competing, the numbers were slightly up from last week as some members had returned to “sunny Spain”. Well played to the top five placings. They delivered a very close game.  It was good to see James in the prizes and getting back to his old form. There were also 4 guests competing for the guest prize which was won for the second time running by William, having had his handicap cut by 2 strokes and still coming in with 36 points.
Finally, I would like to mention that some of the members who came attired in our new CBGS shirt and cap, all looked very smart in their azur blue outfits.

Nearest the pins on the par 3’s :
Hole 4            Jean-Paul Leroux
Hole 8            Jeff Murten
Hole 11          Chris van Bemmelen (alias the “Laughing Dutchman”)
Hole 14          Tony Dewavrin

There was one two today from Michael Davison who received the customary golf ball.
