Tom Novak won division 2 with his even-par score while a 19/17 countback saw Gil Phillips take second and Rick Assi third after two 35’s came in. Leo Adam was fourth with 28 points.
There are eight prizes in the near pins today but only four happy chappies: (Div 1) Nik Evans (x2) and Paul Young, and (Div 2) Ray Kingwell.
There were no 2s in either division so two rollovers in division 1 and one in division 2 to Burapha on Wednesday.
Wednesday, May 8, Burapha – Stableford
We were allocated the A and B nines today and were playing off the white tees, but after nine holes there were many moved forward to the red tee position and this was reflected in the scores. This was our first visit here for six months and everyone enjoyed the round, with the these two nines in good condition and some very slick greens.
