29 Starters for the 1st round at this challenging layout on the south coast ,the weather was great and the course was in pretty good shape. It’s very easy to hit an errant shot into the plentiful lakes or bunkers on this track !

Results:

In a tight contest, Carro (as we call her) shot the lights out with 40 points !

A close 2nd to Darren Griffiths with a great score of 39 off a low handicap. 

First game with SAOGA and welcome to Uwe Ebert who came in 3rd on count back, also with 39 points.

We also welcome his wife Sylvia to SAOGA.

The next 6 place-getters also received a ball each – down to 36 points.

And Darren was awarded an extra sleeve of balls for his magnificent “slam-dunk” (nothing but hole) chip-in for an Eagle on the Par 5 8th hole.
