Ladies

Conditions were blustery to say the least. Five ladies braved the elements and played a 4BBB on the composite course with three teams of two involving one mystery partner. Spookily all three teams scored 35 points.

In third place falling away on the back nine were Jayne and Lia. But when it came to separate the first two… Best back 6 no difference, best back 3 again no difference, best last hole still the same, so then it went to the last 10 holes still no luck until at last on a count back to the 11th hole Cheryl and Deborah edged it from Doreen and Cheryl (mystery partner). We leave it to Captain Jayne to decide the prizes. Results…

With another new course, the 5 present decided on another team competition and Peter Jagger was co-opted to one of the teams. A waltz was order of the day with the team of Susan Smith, Cheryl Woodhouse and Sheena Harrington comfortably beating Doreen Dolby, Val Riziotis and Peter, mainly courtesy of Cheryl’s good back 9. Use of the men’s stroke indices gave rise to some interesting scores! Results…

Three brave ladies Kate, Lia and Val took on the composite 9 hole round twice last Sunday 9th February. No prizes to be had, no eclectic competition, no chance of playing the proposed team game but still they set out with energy, enthusiasm and a touch of madness to boot.

To keep them interested in walking through the sludge and to cope with the long walks between the tees together with the prospect of no prize to motivate them, they invented their own game of Joker Match Play. Lia had 1 joker, Val 2 with both awarded 2 jokers to play together against Kate. Surely they could do it.

Val leapt into the lead on the front nine only to be caught up by Lia and Kate very quickly at the beginning of the back nine. Courageous Kate kept cool and finally took the victory with a brilliant tee shot onto the edge of the 17th green. Val and Lia were left flabbergasted, muddy and wet (with still 1 more joker to play against her), but finally they tied for 2nd place. There were no prizes but there were no losers. Results…

Another gloriously sunny day belied the extremely wet and muddy condition of Prince’s and again the competition was a non-qualifier with the 9th/18th being played on the Duke’s 18th. It was a low scoring day for the ladies, with Sheena Harrington winning the day on 33 points followed by Susan Smith on 32. Results…

The leaderboard for the Eclectic has the same ladies in first and second place with Sheena on net 72 and Susan three shots behind on 75. R3 Leader board…
