Newsletter – March 11, 2020

If you are interested in partaking in a Ryder Cup event between the BSGC and the Beverly Group, please contact Warwick. We need 12 players and will be playing on 2 or 3 days ( Fridays?)

Today 25 players took the road to Beverly for a round of Stableford. Although it looks as if summertime was already there this week, the weather was quite nice and not to hot.
On most of Tee-boxes the green keepers put the silver markers forwards together with the white markers to improve the grass on the silver Tee-boxes, causing high scores.
Oliver Duncan, one of our members, still getting his 5 scores in for his Handicap, shot an excruciating 63 of the stick starting with an Eagle on Hole No.1!! He won Nearest to the pin on 3 Holes!! Well done Oliver and we hope to see you soon back with your Australian friends.

Note from the handicapper: A number of mistakes were found on quite a few cards when being input into the handicapping system, as result some of the scores announced at the “presentation bar” and documented in an earlier version of this newsletter have changed. Fortunately this did not affect the Winner/Runner Up status. Please be more careful when scoring and checking cards. When checking cards it is sometimes hard to read the score so it is very important we can go back to the card of the marker to get a 2nd opinion however a few players do not follow the practice of recording ones own score on the player’s card. Please in future can all players keep that parallel score…thanks.
