Godolphin Goblet and Admiration Cup

 Godolphin Goblet and Admiration Cup


It was a glorious day for these two trophy competitions - a total of 21 ladies entered.


The Admiration Cup is for handicaps over 30 and was won by Liz who had a super round scoring 41 points and receiving a handicap cut of 1.5 Well played Liz, absolutely superb - a well deserved win.

Pam was in second place with 39 points and Jean was in third.

The Godolphin Goblet also had several outstanding scores!

The first four places had scores of 40 or more!

Antoinette and Lindsay both scored 40 points with Lindsay taking third place on countback!

Jenny was 2nd with 41 points and in first place was Sarah with an outstanding 44 points.

Due to Sarah's recent excellent scores she was awarded an exceptional scoring reduction along with the usual cut  so will now be playing off 21 (a cut of three shots in total)

Well played Captain Sarah! An outstanding score a great win for excellent play!



There was a fifth score that earned a 1.6 handicap cut and that was from Di who                                      scored a fabulous 43 points.                                                         Unfortunately she and Chris unintentionally hit each other's balls during play of the second hole - only realising what had happened as they stood ready to play on the third tee.  

Because they hadn't yet teed off, all would have been well if they had gone back and corrected the mistake... playing again from where they had played the wrong ball then adding a two shot penalty.

Unknowingly they played on, adding the two shot penalty as required but because they did not go back and correct the mistake it meant that they had to be disqualified. 

Had they known they would have acted accordingly  - it is a reminder for all of us and something we can all learn from.
