Sunday 20th October 2019 Jagorawi

The Day

Presidential Inauguration or Bali Classic or Rugby World Cup quarter finals or end of school holidays or just one of those odd week-ends …. for what ever reason we had a quiet and very relaxing visit to Jagorawi on our first visit since last November’s JIL end of season party.

Traffic on the toll road moved smoothly in the morning enabling everyone to be at the course in good time for us to head out under a clear and sunny sky for our advanced tee time. The course too was relatively quiet and so we were round in under 4 hours despite the challenging nature of the New Course. Taking advantage of this, the prize giving was all done and dusted before 5pm so we could enjoy the equally trouble-free trip home; many of us getting back in well under an hour!.

All in all a pleasurably day out for the 17 Tee Setters who joined us.

No newcomers this week and our longest welcome back was 8 weeks for Brett Shields who was to enjoy a very good round as can be seen below. A bon voyage to Michal Lubasik who is departing for several months and we hope to see you back sometime soon.

A thank you to the Jagorawi team who looked after us so well on the day and to VP Ric Wymer for managing all the scoring.

The Play

With the course running fast and reports that the greens were very smooth after being baked in the sun, we were expecting a collection of potential fines but whilst the scores were generally high, our sole fines on the day were Micheal Mueller for his Most Strokes and our skirt Dan Javier. Most Improved was Frank Wilson whilst keeping the family equilibrium was our First Birdie, Anna Wilson.

Low Putts went to Mick Mongold and First Sandy was shared between Andrew Shaw and Jari Antikainen. Low Gross on the day was Roger Finnie.

Our Low Net on the day went Brett Shields for his excellent round of net 66 and who was joined by Joseph D’Cruz and Shawn Berg.

Congratulations to all our winners and detailed results are here: Form_ Current Results Jags 201019

Next Up: Cengkareng Sunday 27th October Monthly Medal

This Sunday we head back to one of Jakarta’s finest courses and one of Tee Set’s most popular venues, Cengkareng, home for Tee Set’s Monthly Medal for 2019.

In addition to being the 10th Monthly Medal of 2019, this week will also be the 3rd round of Cycle XI of the Tee Set Eclectic. With Cycle X winner, Matthew Powell, having departed Jakarta, we will definitely have a new winner: will it be another new name on the Trophy or will one of our past Champions rise to the occasion again.?

Whilst there is a lot to attract players for this week, we also welcome those who just wish to enjoy a pleasant trip across the rolling fairways, guided round by Cengkareng’s well trained caddies and then to sit and enjoy one of its famous Margaritas to cool you down afterwards.

If you are able to join us for a very reasonable Rp850,000 walking please sign up here. Tee time is 12pm as usual.

Reminder: For those who would prefer not to walk, in addition to the hover boards to glide across the rolling fairways, Cengkareng has available a limited number of golf carts. If you wish to reserve one please contact the Golf reservations staff at Cengkareng directly. As the carts are limited in number and we do not have visibility to those already booked on the day, your Tee Set Committee is not involved to the reservation of the carts
