AT last, King Islanders enjoyed a really great Saturday for golf and the course is in great condition.
The mowers were in full swing during the week.
The rough is now under control getting ready for the Open.
The greens are looking good with plenty of water being pumped onto them during the past two weeks.
The golf game this week was a three-person Irish Stableford.
In the first six holes, the best score counted, in the second 9 the best two scores and in the final 6 holes all three scores were counted.
The 20 players had a good day out with some very good scores both as groups and individuals. The winning group was David Munday, Brendan Strickland and Cooper Hamer with 84 points. Well done to Cooper a young gun in the making.
Runnersup on 81 points, Sukma Bowling Beau Keys and Brett Harrup.
Those two groups were miles in front of the other groups. It was good fun and individual scores counted as all players recorded their Stableford points.
The best individual scores of 37 points each were John Mauric, Beau Lee Keys, and Rab Denby. On 36 points Dave Munday and most players made it into the 30s.

Thanks again to Gary Strickland for helping the older, less computer-literate members to enter the Open, which is only a couple of weekends away. Apart from the two-day Open, the third day, Monday, is a 4BBB at Cape Wickham. Next week will be a Stableford two-person multiplier. Once again individual stableford scores can’t just get a partner to win the event.
