Only eighteen players plus two guests showed up. Was it because of a long weekend? Or was it the course itself to blame for the dwindling attendance? A number of players found&nbsp; a hefty time to score low as indicated by the winning net score of 72 the last time SGC played here last June. It was the same story this Sunday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nassau winners: One of our newcomers, Jess Velarde took the front nine. This new member just joined the club of long hitters; a real threat for grabbing some prizes in the remaining SGC\u2019s stretch run. Watch out. Bert C. seized the back nine and total net score of 71.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Closest to the pin contest: What about this &#8211; a swept of winning par threes by a wily veteran, Jun Paculaba. He won both Middle\u2019s seventh hole and Lakeland\u2019s fourth hole. As a matter of fact, players in the same group with Jun were telling us that he nearly aced the fourth hole as his shot hit the pin.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3363\" style=\"width: 81px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3363\" width=\"71\" height=\"71\" class=\"wp-image-3363\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/sierragolfers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/junp-150x150.jpg\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-3363\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jun P.<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>ANNOUNCEMENT:<\/strong> This Sunday\u2019s event is a special one. A <strong>mandatory<\/strong> \u2018Blind Partner\u2019 contest is in the offing as well as SGC\u2019s offer of hamburger sandwich dinner with all the trimmings of course after the round at Kingsforest. To those new members who are wondering what \u2018Blind Partner\u2019 is all about &#8211; it is the lowest total net score of the round of two players in a partnership. Partners are selected via a draw and that is where it has got its name from. Top three lowest partnership net scores win a prize.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Please be reminded that Kingsforest\u2019s tee off time is at 11:00 o\u2019clock AM. Also, be mindful of the traffic along the QEW that may occur on your way to the golf course. So, come early. Try not to forget confirming your attendance for this Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twenty-four degrees Celsius with a threat of rain that never happened at last Sunday\u2019s round 16 at Westview golf course.
