Country Cup, 29 September 2013

Kwinana Golf Course, 29 September 2013.

(also known as "the day of the worst scores on record". Why? just take a look at the scores below...)

Country Cup

Prize sponsor: Bernie

"Dammit, it's raining!!!" Waking up at 6am was tough enough, the notion of playing under the rain is not really amusing.
Thanks to Peter, I got a lift at 7am at Leederville. During the trip, Peter asks: "Do you have a jacket? the weather forecasts have got worse since last night...". My answer was no. I don't generally check the weather forecasts every minute, I would expect that a forecast of 8 hours earlier would be pretty accurate. How wrong I was!!!
"Maybe I have a spare umbrella for you...". By 7:30am we were already at the golf club, and yes, Peter did have the spare umbrella. Very luckily, because it kept me kind of dry during the game, otherwise I would have been completely soaked in water.

The first thing that I noticed from the tee of #10 was how narrow were the fairways, it's going to be a tough day.
And tough it was. I played my worst game ever. I have to say that rain really puts me off when golfing. I don't mind it so much in many other sports, but golf under the rain... I'd rather wait in the club house...

Ok, scores.
