It was a calming day last Sunday at Century Pines golf course at nineteen degrees Celsius with the sun shining briskly. Twenty-five members showed up plus three guests. With three games left, players were jockeying for positions hoping for a good performance for the day that would help their own respective causes and to propel them up there for those awards still up for grabs. Conspicuous eyes and brashness were noticeable from listless contenders vying for such awards and made it so apparent that “You snooze, you lose“ mentality was a formidable tool to rub on to the next competitor. What an impasse; but good to see competition at its best. Not recommended for those with weaker hearts.
Trending: Worthy performances of late from these members (In alphabetical order): Manny C., Jimmy M., Manny M., JC & Mike M., Dave N., Seho O., and Rene Q. Not only are these member’s participation/attendance in idyllic inspiration but showing their respect for those who are lagging behind in competitive assertiveness. The rest of the members are always in awe every time they see such performances like these in display from fellow members year after year. You may not know it but yes, we notice.
Food for thought: “You don’t have to hold a position in order to be a leader “ ~ Anthony J. D’Angelo, The College Blue Book.
Sunday’s banter: Every Sunday a day prize is always waiting for someone to take it with whoever is turning in the best net score. This time around a veteran member of savvy objective happens to take whatever is at stake from time to time. And yes, Sennix Bontigao took the honours of signing in the best net score of 66. With his performance, Sennix rewarded himself of making a sweep of Nassau corners contest; almost. Not bad, not bad. Meticulously lurking in the shadow of “Excuse me while I shoot a good round” was Manny Chea who fired the best gross score of the day in regularity of 75.
Nassau contest: Who else but Sennix B. He grabbed the back & total and nice enough to share the front nine prize with Joey C. and Seho O.
Closest to the pin contest:
Hole 5: Ed I.
Hole 7: Manny C.
Hole 13: Bingoy P.
Hole 15: Rene Q.
Congratulations to the winners.
Announcement: Results of Saturday’s SGC annual meeting to be released soon.
