One perfect Sunday golf weather, finally. How good was the weather you asked? The weather was so good that one member was querying after the round of golf, “What do we do now, sun’s still up? Let’s play more golf!” he bawled. Yes folks that was how good the weather was yesterday. We were so surprisingly amassed by the worthy fortune that happened that we were hoping of good things to come from here on in with Mother Nature. To top it all more players got out of their slumber – a total of twenty-nine players showed up and played.
For your info, Ricky R. was SGC’s POY winner circa ’88.
So on a calm day, good scoring results were expected or should we say……..
The GAME: One player who was focused on winning and still had momentum was Jojo D. He posted the lowest net round of the day with a net score of 67 giving him that two weeks in a row conquest. Special mention to Jimmy M., Manny C., and Rene Q. for turning in noteworthy gross scores of 77, 79, & 85 respectively. Seho O. as well continued his solid play with a close call third place finish a stroke behind second place.
Nassau: Needless to say, Jojo D. took overall and back nine while Jimmy M. tied with another player winning the front.
Par 3 closest to the pin: Jimmy M. seized the 3rd hole convincingly. Rey M. narrowly beaten an already close shot to the pin on the sloping 10th hole by Seb DM. by a hair.
Most of the players made the membership fee deadline without a hitch. Almost. No further comment on this issue. Got this idea of wise man saying, “You can think it, but don’t say it”. Game 2 awarding of leaderboard points were re-adjusted accordingly from second placer down. Due to this adjustment the regular POY standings is affected and modified. Regrettably this is bad news for one, good news for few who garnered more points thereby moving up in the standings.
Nice to see come back players all healthy raring to go with the new season.
Joey C. collected attendance for those who intend to play in the GTAA interleague tournament to submit to the hosting club. If you have not confirmed yet to attend, please do so by contacting Joey ASAP. Believe it or not, what do you think is happening next? Yes you guessed it, the collection of GTAA fee in advance.
On sustenance news after the round, one chap named Eddie I. brought some ‘chicharon’ to munch on together with a round of drinks provided by the winners with plates & plates of French fries too.
Congratulations to the winners!
