Well the weather certainly heated up this week, as well as the SAC Race Competition! Some fantastic scores were posted on all 3 days of competition.
On Saturday (9/1), Chris Levy was the winner with 33pts.
On Tuesday (12/1), Ellen Neale won Division 1 posting a glorious score of 36pts on a countback from Sue Flaxman (R/U) on a countback from Vicki Scanlan also on 36pts!
Division 2 on Tuesday (12/1) was won by Jenny Alexander with a lovely score of 35pts, with Penny McKenna being R/U with 32pts.
Thursday 14th was hot, hot hot. The weather did not worry some of our girls though as there were again some wonderful scores.
Division 1 winner (14/1) was Katrina Onishi posting a great score of 37pts. Close on her heels was Ellen Neale posting another 36pts - 2 in one week! Katrina also scored an EAGLE on the 3rd Hole!! Congratulations Katrina.
(Katrina is Women's President at Pymble Golf Club, and also a member at Bowral).
Ellen must be taking some special breakfast supplements - they are certainly improving her game ....... may be affecting her memory though as her wallet and scorecard stayed on the 1st Tee as she sailed off following her fantastic drive!!
Division 2 winner was Wilma Lung with a great score of 33pts. Wilma won on a countback from Jane Kilmister also on 33pts.
Lovely to see Christine Evans back on the golf course - Chris has obviously been practicing at home, as she scored a lovely 34pts on Thursday!
PENNANTS
There has been a fabulous response to the 2021 Pennants. Thank you to everyone who has put their names down for either the CSGA Plate or the Bronze Shield.
Virginia (Plate Captain) has organised 2 clinics with Kevin Kenny - sheets are in the locker room for you to add your name if you can attend. Thanks to Kevin for giving up his time on Thursday 18th February and Thursday 25th February.
We are in the process of purchasing new shirts for the Plate Team, as the Bronze Shield team will wear the new shirts from last year.
If you have not put your name down yet - it's not too late. See Virginia or Jane if you need more information.
All bunkers except the 11th are back in play (Covid rules apply). The bunker on the right at the 14th is GUR and will be turned into mounding. The bunker on the right at 16 has been reduced by about 1/2, and the front mound is GUR until the grass has regrown.
FORTUNATELY OUR BUNKERS ARE NOT QUITE AS DIFFICULT AS THIS ONE!!
