Mike Leads The Way in the Low Gross
Another day dawned and golfers descended on the Greenwood course for the July PAGS tournament. Todays field of 79 players which included 9 Ladies had to contend with the course seeming to play long, due to the damp conditions, which required lift, clean & place being implemented. We played the C & A combination, having been a full year since we were last here for a PAGS tournament.
Mike Allidi (3) shot a great round, winning the Low Gross with a fine 73, while his score of 38 points was also good enough to pick up 3rd spot in the A Flight nett, to go with a technical as well. Equal best scores of the day went to the A flight winner, Peter Gulberg (9) with a fine 40 points, to edge Ian Parry (10) into 2nd spot on a countback, that went to the last 6 holes, 14/12, after both had 21 on the back 9.
The Ladies winner was Nantaporn Rukkid (15) with 36 points.
B flight for handicaps 14 – 20 required no countbacks this month, with John Fenwick (19) on 37 points the clear winner. Last months winner, Simon Dutton (16) did enough to get 2nd spot with 33 points, while Neil Fidele (20) was a surprised recipient of 3rd prize with his 31 points, (surprised, but grateful).
In the C flight, for handicaps 21+, there was a clear winner, Laurent Bertogliata (23) with a solid 37 points, while the minor placings again required countbacks. Louis Ventimiglia (23) just getting the better of Craig Muldoon (22) 18/16 on the back 9 holes after both had signed for 31 points.
Again this month I will throw out a few honourable mentions, to Ken Price, Gerd Riedler, Uwe Wegner & Jerry Sweetham who each picked up the maximum 2 technical prizes, well done to all.
Dave and his team once again did a tip top job in the tucker department, with plenty of non golfers coming along to enjoy the social atmosphere of the evening with their golfing partners, family & friends. As always, there is only 1 person to blame if you go home hungry from The Lion Pub after a PAGS presentation. We look forward to next month’s event back at Phoenix on 30 August, as I am sure all who have experienced the PAGS organisation and hospitality do.
