CAPTAIN’s CORNER
This week’s Stroke/Monthly Medal: 1st Round of the Championship drew a field of 87 members and 3 visitors. One of our visitors was very popular past member Charlie Adelberg who now lives in Bendigo. Charlie made mention on how good the course was looking which is a credit to the Greens Staff and our Volunteers.
Congratulations to our John Madill Monthly Medal Winners: A – Greg Flanagan (64), B – Kim Bannikoff (65 c/b), C – Hasse Andersson (63).
Unfortunately we had a record number of disqualifications for a variety of reasons. The decision on Rob Powell’s disqualification has been reversed as a more thorough study of the rules showed he had not breached any rule. All other disqualifications stand.
Players who have been disqualified can still win next weeks Stroke event but are out of contention for the Championship.
Next week is the 2nd round of the Championship and will be followed by our 2015 AGM.
In the event of a tie in any grade, there will be a play off on holes 1, 17 and 18. If still tied the play-off will be sudden death over the same three holes.
Leaders after round 1 are:
| A – Grade | B – Grade | C – Grade |
| Kevin Tonkin 78 | Grant Smallacombe 85 | Hasse Andersson 93 |
| Brad Jordison 78 | Brian Flynn 87 | Glen Johnstone 93 |
| Bob Noble 79 | Kim Bannikoff 88 | Rob Powell 94 |
| Russ Rylance 79 | Ron Bourne 88 | Brad Lavender 94 |
| Greg Flanagan 81 | Bill Edwards 88 | Chris Simpson 95 |
Our best wishes go out to Life Member, Jim Penman, who has not been too well lately and also to Dave Chapman who is recovering from a hernia operation that should see him back in action around Xmas.
Good luck to all in next weeks 2nd round of the Championship.
