Venue: Bonalba
Golf & Spa, 1st July 2015
Today 28 members turned up to play the Monthly Medal.
Temperatures were expected to rise to the mid 30’s, so we were bracing
ourselves for not only having to play out each hole but also dealing with the
unusually hot weather.
Congratulations to our resident artist, Stephen Grey, for
an excellent win. Not surprisingly, he also scooped the special prize of best
score on all par three’s with 13 points, one under gross and although he was not nearest the pin on any of the par 3's, he managed to shoot a birdie on the 14th.
Also in good form recently is Keith Preston, one of our founder members. He came second last week and again this
week. Come on Keith, you can do it !
As usual, we were having a lunch after medal play. We stayed on at the Bonalba Club Restaurant. There was a good turn out for the lunch. Some 30 members and guests enjoyed the BBQ which was a nice change from the normal menu del día.
