It may have looked like rain, but in the end we had perfect weather for golf. 34 players (17 pairs) produced some very close scores.
Susan Flaxman (34) & Jane Clifford (26) were the winners with a nett 70.
Runners-up were Marg Horwitz (22) & Barb Clayton (25) with nett 72.5.
The top eight teams now go to match play rounds as follows:
(1) Jane Clifford & Sue Flaxman vs (8) Barb Mead & Alex Dowling
(2) Marg Horwitz & Barb Clayton vs (7) Jenny Grant & Wendy Burke
(3) Carole Turpie & Rosemary Downing vs (6) Ellen Neale & Di Mellen
(4) Pam Barker & Chris Hill vs (5) Jenny Ogg & Chris Levy
Remember the first round of matches need to be completed by Sunday 10 May.
As you should be aware as soon as the new BGC scorecards arrive there are lots of changes for Women's Golf. We already have a new scratch rating of 74 but when the new cards are introduced par for our red course will increase from the current 70 to par 74. Many of the indexes on individual holes will also change so make sure you read the card carefully. Most of our handicaps will then revert to former levels. In fact your playing handicap at Bowral will be very similar to your GA handicap.
Please also be aware that the match play index on the new cards is different to the one we currently use as we are changing to the Golf Australia Recommended Match Index. For match play rounds in the Jubilee Foursomes (and the Challenge Bowl) please use the card (and match play index) that is valid on the day of your match.
