Lake Albert and Murray Bridge Results

Saturday 27/06/15:   Lake Albert, Medindie

Ten starters on a lovely day - mild and generally sunny, with virtually no breeze (well done Bronte).  The course was in excellent condition with the relatively new Santa Anna greens outstanding.    We joined in Lake Albert's par competition, with Ross Townsend winning multiple prizes for NTP/long drive, best looking etc.   Surprisingly, his 'one up' score didn't win a prize.

EET stableford winner was Ross with an impressive 36 points, followed by Steve White & Greg Whicker on 32 points.

Birdies:
Ross:       par 5 third
Kevin:      par 3 fourteenth

Four point holes:
Bob:        par 3 sixth
Worth mentioning Greg's 3-skip 'dambuster' drive across the water on the eleventh.  


Sunday 28/06/15:   Murray Bridge

Another perfect day for golf - pretty much identical to Lake Albert.  Fourteen starters with very ordinary scores apart from a couple.

EET Singles Comp - first round:
Steve White snuck in over Greg Whicker.   Greg was four-up after nine, but suffered a very minor (almost imperceptible really) stumble on the back nine to lose on the seventeenth. The four-point back nine set a new low.

Normal Comp:
Ross continued his good form with 32 points, thereby winning the "Vinny" trophy for the weekend.  Steve White scored a respectable 32 points under match play conditions, with Paul Crathern on 30 points.   The rest are currently locked in a room full of mirrors.

NTP and Long Drive:               Greg (obviously on the front nine)

Birdies:
Ross:     par 3 seventeenth
Brian:     par 3 fourth
Phil:        par 4 fourteenth

Four point holes:
Bob:       par 3 fourth
Paul:      par 4 thirteenth
Worth mentioning the "random hole' approach adopted by Kevin's group - went straight from the eighth green to the thirteenth tee and played most of that hole before the light dawned.
