AT Emerald Golf Club last Saturday, someone had turned on the lights and screwed up the thermostat to ‘comfortable’.
So, all excuses were submitted to the rubbish bin for future analysis.
It was a stableford round, and when all the punters had arrived at the tuck shop, it emerged that Seppy Krummenacher (23) was the top scorer overall, and in B Grade with a five better than his handicap, 41 points.
Dennis Fuller (17) headed up the A Grade rabble with 39 points followed closely by Dean Shannon (17), Ross Marin (10) and Mark Starick (120 all with 37 points).
Philip Crossley (21) scored 38 points while David Aitken (26) and Ian Scott (26) both played to their handicaps for 36 points.
Ben Balfour was nearest the pin on the 4th, Dennis Fuller the 7th, Peter Glasscock the 12th and the pro pin 18th and Leigh Morison was closest on the 13th.
Kendra Sumsion withstood challenges from left, right and centre to emerge triumphant in the ladies’ section.
Wednesday’s Originally Flippant Golf was a stroke event hitting off from the back of all tees, so some of the old codgers found the going a little north of tough.
Gerran Wright (33) found his feet and strolled in with a nett 66 to be a lap and a bit ahead of the second-placed codger, Brian McCoy (35) with 73.
The rest pleaded for me not to divulge their scores, which I haven’t, and I am prepared to take cash or cheques.
