2015: Monthly Medal (3.6.)

Venue: Bonalba Golf & Spa, 3 June 2015

A beautiful sunny June morning greeted us as 31 of our members assembled at Bonalba to play our Monthly Medal Competition.  We also welcomed a guest, Derek Morton, who was a founder member of the Costa Blanca Golf Society, together with Manolo Garay, some 20 years ago.

The course is in good condition and part of the maintenance program is the hollow-tining next week.

Looking at the winners, it was good to see that they came from players with a wide cross section of handicaps. Congratulations go to Helmut for an excellent win, especially when his handicap had been cut by one stroke from his previous win.
