Eastern Star was the challenge today and we got off the first tee 25 minutes early under sunny skies and in very hot, muggy conditions.  The course on the day was ok but wet (I suspect somebody forgot to shut off the sprinklers because the bunkers were bone dry).  The green fee was a bit steep though in relation to other venues in the area.

We made it around in 4 hours and 5 minutes as the course was not busy and back in the clubhouse a welcome went out to Karl Beter from Austria, just finishing chef duties in Cebu.

Two flights today with the cut at handicap 21 and a full monty of pins but the course was the winner as the best score was Lotte Boskov’s 35 points to take the A Flight ahead of Brian Gabe, Jan Lovgreen and Arne Max Pedersen, who took fourth on a count back from Elias Magnusson. Ian Pickels was the B Flight winner on a count back from Anne Saabye in second, both with 29 points, while Daryl Evans took third and Dave Richardson fourth.

Greenwood was in fine condition on Thursday although the greens on the B side were a bit scratchy.  The round was quick at 3 hours and 50 minutes and back in the clubhouse welcomes went out to Dave Addison from the UK, Joe Vanderwegon from Belgium, and Bridgit and Ole Mortensen from Denmark.  There was also a goodbye to Ronnie Ratte, going back to Norway.
