The Day

Sunday saw us head a short way down the Jagorawi toll to visit the Greg Norman designed Riverside Golf course for our weekly event and for the 3rd Round of the Jakarta Inter-League. With many Tee Setters also playing amongst the various teams competing in the Inter-League matches, there was lots of pre-match banter and no small amount of arrangements to be managed which thankfully all came together with the assistance of the Riverside team and the various JIL Captains.

With the holiday maintenance and lighter playing rounds over the past few weeks, the course was in lush condition and with the weather remaining kind, we enjoyed a relatively quick and dry round. The ride home was a little slow with the usual returning holiday traffic and few small accidents along the highway but otherwise we all had a good day.

 A warm Tee Set welcome to our new-comer this week, Chirag Patel, who is joining us for a couple of events during his current visit to Jakarta and a warm welcome back to Kelly Chaisson after 88 weeks and Emil Marcelo after 33 weeks. We look forward to seeing you all again shortly.

Many thanks to VP Ric Wymer for managing all the registrations and scoring on the day and theday’s photos are here. Thank you also to Rudie Basson and Jens Roestel who assisted with the morning’s administration.

The Play

Not often we have photographic evidence of the skirts but Kelly Chaisson is featured above playing his 2nd (ed: ?) shot and was duly captured for his skirt photo also. He was joined by Tom Grace and Rudie Basson as our awardees on the day. Monster Putter went to Brett Shields and the 11 players tied for 9 strokes were grateful to Lorenzo Marengo whose Most Strokes of 11 saved them all from a fine.

Lorenzo however used his Most Strokes on the front 9 to win Most Improved and recover his fine. First Birdie went to Emil Marcelo and Low Putts to Chirag Patel whilst Richard Mau won First Sandy.

Low Gross and JIL Long Drive went to Dave Prosser who had an excellent 77 on the day whilst Low Net honors were awarded to Arthur Mallari (in the absence of Paul Daud), Andrew Waite and President Roger Finnie.

Congratulations to all our winners and the detailed results can be found here: Form_ Current Results

In the JIL, Tee Set had a narrow loss to Cloggies 4-6 whilst the other matches saw more one-sided results as Tin Cups and Sentul Swingers prevailed over Pocksia and Sandbaggers, respectively.
