Here we were again at almost halfway point of our golf season. Time always flew fast when we were having fun. Twenty-nine degrees Celsius last Sunday at Westview golf course welcoming twenty-three players as well as three guests.

Hmm……let me see the profile on last Sunday’s winner – JC M. In 2015 POY race he closely fought for the title but fell short dropping down in fourth place, lagged behind by twenty-four strokes to the eventual winner, his very own brother, Mike M. He narrowly missed third place overall by a mere stroke to Jimmy M. Not bad – engaging yourself in top five of the POY race was not an easy task. His best outing last year was a net of 67 for second place at Royal Woodbine on August 16, 2015, round 17, beaten by a net of 64 courtesy of Bingoy P. Well at Westview golf course which had a higher course rating than most of the golf courses slated in SGC schedule, amusingly had its own way of counterbalancing player’s respective handicaps. In simple layman’s terms, it was a difficult course. JC came out just mighty fine by bagging the day’s prize with a net score of 70. It could be a start of a good beginning for him; couldn’t agree more.

Nassau Contest: This some guy with an Irish ……er Pinoy luck, Bert C. won the front nine. Shared and shared alike, this sounded good as three people all tied to win the back nine – Jojo D., JC M., & Seho O. Who else would win the overall score but JC M.

Sad news for an ailing member. Sam Kim with unfortunate advice from his doctor not to play any physically driven sport activity because of back problems is abruptly gone for the season. May we remind everyone that Sam was one of our members that was instrumental in helping SGC win this year’s Gemini Cup by shooting an admirably net of 62. SGC in behalf of its members would like to wish him a speedy recovery. We appreciate as well the round of drinks he provided last Sunday. See you next year Sammy.

SGC also would like to send best health wishes to Don D. and Nap P. We do not easily forget.
