Course Update
Players over the past few weeks have commented about the exceptionally high standard at which our course is being presented. Matt, Adam, Colin and Tom have put so much of themselves into the course and we, the players, are extremely grateful.
The divot situation is improving slowly, and I thank the players for their increased diligence. Don't let up now though, keep putting your finish on the course for everyone else to enjoy.

Friday 9th October. The "Nugget". 18 players (11 men and 7 ladies) turned out throughout the day to enjoy the course setup and preparation for the following day's Championships. John Bragg (22) posted 21 points to beat Fran Dubiez (26) and Pam Barker (10) by one stroke. In fourth was Mary O'Connor (22) with 20 points. Balls were won down to 18 points via count back. With daylight saving time now established and the weather warming up, a late afternoon tee time followed by a refreshing beverage seems to be a popular addition to the Nugget routine.
Saturday 10th October. Another very busy day on the course. This week saw the final rounds played in the Veteran's Plate (for players 65 and over), and the Lifestyle Championship cup. This year the Veteran's Plate went down to the wire with a count back required to determine the victor. John Mellen (14) improved on his runner-up result in 2019 to claim the title with scores of net 71 and 66 for a total of 137 from Roberto Ratalino (20). Roberto showed great consistency with his two net scores of 68 and 69 to lose via the count back. Congratulations both players on some great golf.
The Lifestyle Championship was won for 2020 by Scott Olding (12) with scratch scores of 93 and 84 and a total of 177.

Sunday 11th October. The Bradford cup, the Junior Club Championship. For the first time in 14 years there were sufficient numbers in the junior ranks to allow the hosting of this event. 10 players entered on a beautiful morning, and it was great to see an excellent group of young players looking nervous on the 1st tee. After 18 holes of Stableford competition, Brodi Bell (45) emerged the victor with a score of 39 points. Brodi is just 11 years old and will no doubt be a player to watch for in years to come. In second place with a score of 35 points was Angus Malcolm (15). Well done to all who entered the competition, you've done both yourselves and the club proud.
Monday 12th October. Monday Madness. Four players in the field today. Bob Duffin (25) scored 22 points to win the day. Still requesting feedback on your preference of format for the Monday competition. Email me at bgcclubcaptain@gmail.com

A Little Humour
"The best place to refine your swing is, of course, right out on the practice area........ You will have an opportunity to make the same mistakes over and over again so that you no longer have to think about them, and they become part of your game".
