Thirty-three players showed up and played last Sunday at Royal Woodbine golf course including two guests. No more complains heard from players concerning the weather except for a few bites from unfriendly mosquitoes. Not much wind to contend with and the sun, yes the sun was smiling at us all afternoon long. Noticeable also was the abundance of moths hovering over your head that was quite bothersome when teeing off. Golf course nice layout is much adapted to wild life which is rather surprising because of its proximity to urban environment. It shows the richness of food for wild animals plying the course as we saw two healthy coyotes, a fox and bunnies. Heard that the course management is just renting the property and that our government owns the land. Well so much for that stuff and let’s talk about the game. Perception wise, most players if not all are getting into the summer golf swing of things and getting into fine form as indicated by progressing scores.
Remarkable net 66 of three players showing guts and determination – Jojo D., Bingoy P., & Rene Q. who could have shot easily the lowest gross score but beaten by Jimmy M. with a 74.

Nassau: Oscar J. took the front nine with a 42 gross while both Jojo D. & Bingoy P. grabbing the back with gross 38 and both also tied for the overall. How about that huh?
Oscar J
Closest to the pin: Jimmy M. shot the closest on 7th hole; Julio R. won the 14th. Both were so close that I could not put my hairpiece in between the ball and the pin. Just kidding.

SGC welcomes back one of our old timers for his first game this season – Nap Pascual.
ANNOUNCEMENT: If you have not read an email from our Prez Joey C., please take note: Royal Woodbine reminded our club they might lose their liquor license because of members bringing their own liquor and drinking on the course. This is our second warning already and SGC does not want to lose our good standing with this golf course or to any golf course for the same matter.
SGC similarly would like to put a cap to maximum number of members to 40 for this year and the years to follow.
Congratulations to all winners. Thanks for the round of drinks.
