The Day

A slightly overcast day greeted the 25 Tee Setters who headed out on Sunday to one of Jakarta’s premier courses, BSD. Amongst the group were a few weary, and worse for wear, bodies who had completed Jakarta’s best golf marathon on Friday, the Asian Tigers 45 Hole Challenge and then gone out again Saturday with D.O.G.S. before joining Tee Set on Sunday.  Congratulations to VP Bill Lloyd and his team for another great event last Friday.

The overcast conditions made for a cooler day out and with the starter getting us off on time, we enjoyed a smooth round in relatively quick time even if a few groups were inserted just before us at the turn.

4 newcomers on the day with Ryan Macdonald, Marc De Rouw, Jan Vistisen and Alyric Merriott all getting a warm Tee Set welcome. Warm welcome backs to Chad Hinzman, Matthew Cherrett, Andy Doran and Tony Cowan.

After the prize giving, a few players who were not in rush home then retired to Casa de la Mexicana to finish off an excellent week-end. Thank you to VP Ric Wymer, ably assisted as always by Lis Wymer, for managing the day. Photos of the day can be found here.

The Play

With play off the white tees for men, there were no skirts on the day but the tricky greens and pin placements ensured we had some challengers for Monster Putter with newcomer Ryan MacDonald leading all comers with 49 putts. Jari Antikainen broke the log jam on 10 with his Most Strokes of 11 but was able to recover some money with his Low Putts award.

Most Improved went to one of our weekend marathoners, Andy Doran, whilst Tan Chee Hwa took home First Sandy and Axel Hertzke First Birdie.

An excellent round with 14 pars saw Richard Mau take home Low Gross for his 77 whilst Simon Oxley, James Ross and Michael Mueller, the latter 2 on count-backs, took home Low Net honours.
