Sunday Competition - Patawalonga

11/03/2018:      Patawalonga

Fourteen starters in perfect weather (although a touch warm by the finish) with a clear blue sky and a slight breeze (~ 1 club).  The course was in excellent condition.

Highlights:
-      As is usual at the Pat, scores were generally good.  Kev Crathern made a mess of the competition with 46 points, including 25 on the back nine.  Vin-like.
-      First EET appearance (and 40 points) by Sam Wellman, aka 'Son of Noel'.  His modesty, talent and quietness-on-course suggests he was adopted. 
-      The Acting-Captain's speech after the game was outstanding.  

EET Singles Competition 2018 - first round.    Four matches decided: 

-   Jill Thomas by 1 shot over George Cleland.  George's 19/19/38 round didn't quite overcome the 28 shots he had to give Jill.
-   Stephen Gordge def  Noel Wellman (who was dogged by bad luck, as usual)
-   Helen Cooper def Peter Harding (despite a slightly sluggish start - 14 on the first)
-   Greg Whicker def  Paul Crathern (Steve White will be surprised)
