MCCC GOLF DAY

Firstly, a huge thank you to Robin Hardwick for organising the day. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all those who attended.

Sadly, Rajesh missed the match due to irregularities in the wording of the last email directing us to the ground.

The teams were decided on not so much as to which side we dressed on but on how our balls had dropped.

Robin and Ali complemented each other well, each scoring heavily when the other did not. Ali had prepared for the match by going out the night before and drinking heavily till about two in the morning. Robin on the other hand, who obviously was not going to take things seriously, had a lesson the day before and bought himself a new set of ‘Ping’ irons.

The big upset of the day was when the relatively high handicap team of Ali and Robin overhauled the marginally lower handicap team Mark B. and Steve H. returning scores of 43 points to 37 points.

The trophies were duly awarded to the winning pair of Robin and Ali, but there was a third. The ‘Bum Hole’ Trophy awarded for the worst score on any one hole. Mark and Steve narrowly missed out on the honours again as this too was won by Ali recording a 9 on the par 5, 5th hole.

Thanks again Robin and we look forward to next years match, which I am sure, will be better attended.
