An update - this mornings picture from the Club House. This weather will, obviously, help dry the course out. However, this morning there is still a lot of surface water around the first 3 holes. We will continue to work towards carts being available as the course dries out. Great to see that blue sky!! |
It is great to see the sun shine and sunsets, yesterday and today. The day before the fog descended once the showers stopped, even more difficult to find your golf ball (picture). The Saturday competition was decimated by the heavy rain storm at 6am in the morning. The afternoon cleared up to the point of some warmth from the sun. Three golfers took the challenge and played in the competition, two finished and one retired injured. The greens are in great shape - thanks to Matt and the team. |
