Polglase 2

Polglase 2 Stableford

Saturday morning was bright, breezy and cold. Arriving at the club there was a bitter rain shower but the 22 ladies that came today were undaunted. A Stableford/ Polglase 2 and England Golf Trust competition beckoned.

Before we began!

The conditions were challenging to say the least!  Two ladies came in with 30 points - a great score for today - Jan won on countback from Lyn, well played both!

Some of us might have been distracted by the amazing clouds...

                                               ... and worrying about showers... 

or bunkers... ...but thankfully we escaped them - the showers that is!

Several ladies wondered what Ruth was doing in the gorse on the 14th...  she wouldn't tell... but she didn't score on that hole!

Our other prize winners today, were Claire who was third, Sue D 4th and Di  who was 5th.

Everyone deserved an award for completing a tough round. Scores were generally low, mostly in the twenties, and with thirteen ladies within three shots of each other!

This may not be  exactly what you want to read, but between us we had over 100 'blobs'...  over 4 each!  

On the plus side, there were 21 pars between us, with Lyn having 4 and Claire and Sue scoring 3 each.

The England Golf Trust Competition aims to raise funds for youngsters to play golf. Our best silver and bronze division scores are added together and entered - so Lyn and Jan's combined score of 60 points will go into the Competition pot. 

Next Saturday is a medal! 

But before that we have our Coffee morning on Thursday with glorious golf; delicious coffee and cakes; a bring and buy and a raffle... should be fun!

And a reminder - Tuesday evening golf is starting again. This is a relaxed, fun golf time with the chance to relax socially too. We often have a golfers-special meal afterwards. Lyn organises the golf; we usually play 9 holes - more if weather and light allow, the format varies but we aim to have fun.  This is open to everyone - beginner or expert, lady or gentleman - everyone is welcome.
