Polglase 3 to Coronation Foursomes

 Polglase Three 

The 16th May was the Polglase Par competition. This is where we play matchplay against the course! You can see from the picture it was grey and overcast and we did have a little shower but it didn't stop us!

Ten of us were able to play and there was a runaway winner although the next 5 players were within one shot of each other!

Who beat the course?

That was Fran who won 3 up!

In second place was Lindsay who was two down, then Claire, Liz, Antoinette and I were all 3 down!

Well done everyone but particularly Fran with that super win!

Thursday 21st  May was foggy in St Just but I was away up at Cubert visiting my brother where the sun came out! I believe it stayed foggy in St Just most of the day!

It was also foggy on Saturday 23rd when we should have been playing the Wheeler Bowl - so this has been postponed till a later date!

Foggy here...but actually over 30C in London!!!

The heat eventually reached us and it was hot from Sunday till Wednesday!

Thursday ...where is the third tee?

But Thursday 28th was also foggy; 5 of us turned up so we went over to the practice are and hit shots to the assorted flagged 'greens'. This was huge fun with Chris L, Lindsay, Sam, Jenny and me...while we were having fun with this the fog lifted! 

So then a few of us played some of the front 9.

Coronations Foursomes

Saturday 30th May was the Coronation Foursomes and the weather was perfect! At last, warm sunny and just enough of a breeze for us to be comfortable!

Six teams were able to play in this R&A Foursomes Stableford competition where the winners go through to a regional final and if you win that - like Sue S and Lyn did, then you get to go to St Andrews for a grand final! What a joy it was to watch them play there!

The competition today was very close with Lindsay and me coming out on top with 40 points...beating Claire and Lyn by just one point! 

In third were Fi and Ros who beat Frieda and Liz on countback (36 points)

It was the perfect day to play... a rare beast at Cape!
