Aces and Eagles.

Congratulations to Matthew O’Rourke for his ace on 13 today. Using a 9 iron Matthew was very pleased to hole out and ensure he won the Super Shot!

Matthew will have his ball mounted as a permanent trophy to remind himself of his perfect shot and will receive a bottle of wine from St Halletts wines, a special cap and ball marker from GolfNSW, 6 balls from the club and have his name entered on the honour roll of hole-in-one achievers. Well played Matthew.

On the fifth hole today Paul Henderson recorded an eagle two, holing his short pitch shot from the fairway. Paul receives 3 balls from the club. Well played. Paul would like to thank his marker for putting down the wrong score on this hole leading to his DQ. – (edited 29-6). We appreciate Paul informing us of the mistake.

Fourball Bookings.

When booking into a fourball Event please ensure you have your name next to the player you want as your partner. A note from page 5 of the 2023 Conditions of play and competition rules concerning 4 ball Events explains.

“Four-ball Events: Where golfers are left without a partner in
a Four-ball event, they are to complete a single card in the
format for the day – stroke, stableford or par. The match
committee will select all single cards for the day and
randomly combine them into pairs for the competition of the
day.
Please be careful also when booking in for Four-ball events.
Pairs will play in the groups as listed on the time sheet. Most
Fourball Stableford events will be run in conjunction with a
single stableford event and will be handicapped.”
