Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall. Yes folks, we got it last Sunday. We never experienced a day like it. It was all four seasons in just ONE day! Sunday’s forecast for the Hamilton Peninsula wasn’t all that much better with temperatures barely reaching 9 degrees C at times. The competitors had to contend with sleet, snow, hail, rain, and sunshine all packaged in one. Increasingly strong winds which became very blustery in the afternoon did not help either. It was one adverse weather phenomena to another. At least four players who abandoned play in the middle of the round could not be blamed for going straight to the clubhouse to seek shelter from the climate adversity.
Whether it’s the PGA Tour, a member-guest, or your club championship, if you’re a competitive golfer, dealing with inclement weather can be an advantage or disadvantage depending on your ability to handle it. Even one of the fickle Sundays failed to dampen enthusiasm for golf. Despite the weather condition, golf held its own among regulars who still showed to play. One player made it looked easy in the rain, sleet, snow, & hail Sunday at Kingsforest. With the field facing difficult scoring conditions, Jimmy M. reeled in the lowest net score of 71. Manny C. and Jojo D. didn’t do that bad either as they gutted net scores of 74 & 76 respectively. Congratulations!
Hopefully weather forecast will be a little different next Sunday. As of now they are calling for delightful sunshine at 19 degrees C.
See you then.
