Twenty-seven-degree Celsius temperature it was last Sunday, embracing twenty players playing golf at Royal Woodbine golf course. With the sun completely out there all day long and with a slightly prevailing wind pressing against our faces, it was ideal for a round of golf to relax and forget life for a while. There was a wedding party celebration happening at the same time with the speakers blasting out loud that you could hear them throughout the golf course. What this meant was since the patio and the entire bar was occupied, we couldn’t have drinks after our round. Anyway, time goes on so fast and before we even realized it, we are past the halfway mark of our summer past time.
Who earned a place with grit and tenacity that Sunday? Seho Oh did. He’s a fierce competitor with no hard edges. Considered by many as one of the nicest members you can get acquainted with, on and off the golf course. By the way Seho got game too. Why was that? With posting a score net of 67, Seho who boasts the slowest backswing I’ve ever seen, ended the day winning the day prize as well as the Nassau front net of 33 and the total net of course. Nice, very nice.
Fred Bataclan one of our newbies this year proved to be one of the most consistent players. He seemed to be at the top of the leaderboard every time he teed off and not going home empty handed. He won the Nassau back with net 30. Fred together with Jun Paculaba with both net 68, Seho with net 67, they were the only ones who netted in the high 60s.
Closest to the pin contest: Yes, we could say it again, Seho Oh got that shot closest on par 3 seventh hole. Another quiet player who was hard to notice when he played but you could only hear the sound hits on the ball with his golf club, Jun Paculaba won the fourteenth hole.
From L to R: Seho Oh, Jun Paculaba
