Foursomes Champions...

Yesterday, Sunday, was the final of the Foursomes knock out.  It is a 36 hole event and you guessed it... it went for the full 36 holes.  Those in the finals were the teams of James Pinkstone & Nick Reinhard v.s. Wayne Knapp & Geoff Alcock.
Jimmy and Nick were off with an early lead of 3 up and then the match tightened to all square in the second round and finally Wayne and Geoff won 1 up on the 36th hole.  Well done to all, the match was played in great spirit and was enjoyable to watch. The photos below show the gallery which increased throughout  the day of interested members.

The Palms Golf Studio - golf day at BGC

Over one hundred golfers enjoyed a fantastic day of golf last Friday for the Palms Golf day. The course was in great condition and handled the shot gun start well. Thanks to Chris Kunz for the photos of the day and the wild life.  Thanks to Kevin and the team for hosting this event which was a great event for the club.  I never knew that Echidnas could swim, especially Loch Ness monster style.

The course is in great condition and handles the storm water very well.  Loads of run on the fairways.

Play well,

Dave Burgess
