WINTER CUP, ROUND 2

Look, I know it's called the Winter Cup for a reason, but did you all need to pike out at the last minute just because the weather forecast was all doom and gloom?

Ready for anything today


In fact, it wasn't too bad at all. Not a patch on that historic round of July 21st. The first group managed to scamper round without a drop of rain, and the second group only caught a shower just as they were finishing the eighteenth. 

I'm reorganising all the groups


But yes, it was windy. 



Jack missed a putt from three inches. John managed to miss three one foot putts in a row. (Metric system in use in Australia since early '70's Ed.)

OK, so Jack missed a putt from seventy six point two millimetres, and John managed to miss three putts in a row from three hundred and four point eight millimetres. Everyone happy now?

I don't think there's room here for an eleven..


And David paid a whopping fine for scoring an eleven. That's ten one in metric. 



And Richard awarded the Cheeky Monkey award to Jack for the umpteenth week in succession. 

A couple here from the archives.

I seem to remember Vicky and Earle were looking for a name for their new puppy. Any suggestions?

I'm really very cute

On behalf of the sponsor - so I guess I'm the vice-sponsor



Thank you to Frances for her sponsorship of today's event. 

OK, some par 3's are harder than others. We get that.


And now for the big one - the scores for all of those who actually completed two rounds.

Congratulations, Brett. A hard fought contest. 


The results are featured regularly in Monday's edition of the West Australian, but I usually apply a mercy rule and don't put in those of us who had shocking scores. After all, we wouldn't want the readers to think we had a club where anyone ever scored over eighty. 

Only here for the raffle..



Next week, it's Par Plus on the Tuart. And just remember, golf is a game, invented by God to punish guys who retire early.
