S<\/strong>o many storylines happened last Sunday at Kingsforest golf course. To make the day more interesting was the mandatory \u201cblind partner\u201d contest. It went on without any glitch as every player competing tried to post low score to match his\/her low score with another player. Thirty players showed up plus two guests and enjoyed the beautiful weather offered by the Hamilton Peninsula. All members and guests relished dinner after the round courtesy of SGC. We have revered this golf course for a long time now and we appreciated the friendly starter services of Dave as we said our \u2018til next year adieux.<\/p>\n

ROUND:<\/strong> Would the result be more of the same this time around as far as who would score the lowest was concerned? NO sir. We have a new face unnoticeably making noise getting up there posting good scores. The way Dave N. hit the ball for the past week two weeks, finally got it together Sunday to carry him to a net 66. Manny C. who’s been a regular near or at the top of the leaderboard got the last laugh with best gross of 76. Amazingly enough six players – including Manny C., Pat D., Don D., Bert C., Jimmy M.,\u00a0& Jun P. primed with clutch shots and good determination all posted net of 69. Added:<\/span> I did not realize that Jimmy M. grinded a\u00a0gross score of 75\u00a0better\u00a0than anybody else<\/strong>.\u00a0Sorry Jimmy. How about this pic hah?<\/p>\n

BLIND PARTNER:<\/strong> This once a year competition proved to be surprisingly anyone\u2019s contest as nobody knew what the result was going to be. Three prizes were up for grabs. Deservedly, two partnerships tied and garnered the first place award. Partners of the two Mannys won the first prize together with Don D. and PJ P. Third place went to Mike M. & Bert C.<\/p>\n

NASSAU:<\/strong> With a solid showing Dave N. took overall score winning also the back nine tied with Don D. Nice to see a fresh face taking the front nine, Ed P. with a net of 32.<\/p>\n

POY:<\/strong> No ties for top twelve net scores so far after round seventeen. Manny C. leads Jimmy M. by a mere four points. Holding on to third place is Ed I. with Seho O. following closely in fourth. An upcoming Paolo B. grabbed final fifth place from Levi M. who dropped down to sixth place.<\/p>\n

SENIOR POY:<\/strong> Seho O. still hanging on to the lead by as much as ten points to second placer Bert C. Mar DV. and Exe N. skidded down to third and fourth respectively. Looks like Jun P. has something to prove to move up with the leaders with strong performances for the past three weeks. At the\u00a0rate that he is going, Jun P. is projected to take the lead next week.<\/p>\n

MIP:<\/strong> What can we say about this fellow who looks like the only one improving by as much compared to other contenders? Manny C. who has made a habit of shooting consistently is good money bet to win this award for sure. Paolo B. who just completed his twelfth round of the year finally qualified for second place dislodging Julio R. to fourth place tied\u00a0with Levi M. Ed I. who seemed to be in contention in any contest is in third place.<\/p>\n

Fruitful day for a few but not for most. Well, there\u2019s always next time.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to the winners!<\/p>\n

According to Jimmy M., we play Middle\/Lakeland course combo at 1:30 PM.\u00a0Due to the green being aerated currently in which they mentioned to be partially\u00a0cured by the time we teed off, in the offing is a discount of $10 all around: $55 walking\/$65 with cart. Not clear is free bucket of range balls. We shall see.<\/span><\/p>\n
