Great to see 44 Tee Setters back again at one of our favourite courses in fantastic conditions for golf!! Continuing restrictions on gathering meant no presentations, but the leaderboard was able to be shared online through the MyGolf2U app. It was the first time we used the app exclusively for registration, pairings and scoring. Thanks to all for observing the rules and making it easy for everyone. A big thanks to Roger for liaising with the club on registrations and pairing, and Geoff for all the behind the scenes work in setting up the competititon on the app.

Of the 44 players, 31 submitted scores directly through the app and another 9 were added later. We could not find score cards for the remaining 4 players. Next week we will be using the same system at the same course and we hope to get everyone counted!!!

Our Stableford Points leaderboard….

And our Low Gross leaderboard….

Detailed results by player are here:

One of our best scoring fields with 24 players – over half the field – shooting par (36 points) or better. Tied at 41 points were TPS, Diana, Richie and Tom, so we had to go to a countback. We realised Tom had 43 points, but had not entered in the last hole into the app (forgiven this time), so he was clearly the winner. Final results: 4th Diana, 3rd Riche, 2nd TPS, 1st Tom. All will get prizes next time we see you.

Well done Tom and welcome back everyone.

Now normally for a Monthly Medal we only count stableford, but for this week (and next week) given it’s a welcome back, we are recognising Low Gross, which was won by Andrew with 75. We’ll start mixing up the formats again, and having Monthly Medal, as soon as we get back to normal.

In the matchplay, Adrian (39) and Timo (38) were both in form but Timo managed to choose just the right holes to win 2 and 1 and advance to the finals.

Next Up: Sunday 19th September 2021, Welcome Back (Again)

We return next Sunday to see if we can better what must have been a scoring record for Tee Set last Sunday. Same course, same time, same format (stableford) and the same rules apply although we expect dining capacity to be increased as restrictions are further relaxed. This is the club’s call.

Please register and score on MyGolf2U. If, like me, you prefer not to enter in scores during play, please do so immediately after your round, so the leaderboard can tally scores as soon as possible after the last flight comes in. Pay your 100k at the same time as you pay your green fees. Tees will be blue for gents and red for ladies.

We expect all our usual courses to welcome us in the next few weeks so we can resume a more normal schedule, but for now we are very grateful to be playing golf again. The access and gathering requirements are set by the Government and the clubs, so we will do our best to talk with the managements and make our guidance to you as clear as possible so you are free to enjoy your golf safely and hassle free.
