Kylie Lowe’s fantastic Hole in One

Wednesday’s Presidents’ v Captains’ Single Stableford Round began in very cool conditions and the ladies experienced four seasons in one day. Playing conditions were tricky but a few of our players managed to post some excellent scores despite the challenges of wind and scuddy showers. Phyllis Telfer had a blinder with her 45pts in C Grade.

In the end it was the Presidents’ team that took the honours this year, convincingly defeating the Captains. Go the PINKS! Well done to Fay Gimenez who, as usual, starred in the fashion stakes and many thanks go to the two Ken’s (Dewar and Palich) who excelled on the BBQ by cooking a fabulous lunch for the ladies.
