RESULTS for Bogor Raya.

PHOTO GALLERY:

Winner Geoff Thwaites with 41 points and 84 off the stick, Holger Molendyk second with 38 points followed by Richard Mau with 36 points. Not a bad effort considering it rained all day.

Low gross went to Roger Finnie on a count back from Simon Reynolds both with 82 strokes. The Bogor Raya Golf Club put on free beer and snacks for everyone “thank you” 🙏🏻

ANKER MATCH PLAY 2022:

There were two match play games played today with the following results;

Roger over Diarmuid 4&3.

Craig and Cucu all-square over 18 holes after a rain soaked see-saw battle. Darkness prevented any tie-breaking holes.

Mark Johnson over Reysia Moore 1up. played Saturday Rancamaya

The graphic update will follow.

HIGHLIGHTS:😃😃

Perseverance paid off for players who waited out the Bogor inclement interlude. Finishes were in fading, but nevertheless playable, light.

Richard Mau’s sandals were stolen but after shooting 77 he said the sacrifice was worth it.

With the President’s gross only 6 strokes off his age, Tee Set is considering adding a new statistic to myGolf2u. As a reference a couple of other golfers in their 8th decade managed 24 and 27 off their ages.

I want to thank Bogor Raya and in particular Ms Cindy for their great organisation and tolerance in getting us away on a 4 hole mini shotgun start. It is not the fault of BR that it rained in the dry season but they were very graceful in providing everyone with free beer and snacks as a compensation as well as cash back and vouchers for some of those that finished before 9 holes.

LOWLIGHTS: 😡

Unfortunately there were two incidents that gave Tee Set a bad image.

The first was a poor choice of words in claiming a rain check. Even if you are correct you should always remain respectful. In this case only a few minutes was needed to resolved in our members favour, if he had waited.

The second was an incident at the marshalling area where our perennial winger made unnecessary comments about the Flights and Tee Boxes. The committee are there to help and we don’t need to hear grizzling at every encounter. Furthermore, the good name of Tee Set is much more important than any individual. This can be seen in the incident that occurred many years ago at Emeralda where one persons indiscretion has had us banned from Emeralda until today. So please remember that we are guests at our golf courses and if we want them to give us preferential rates etc. then we need to show respect.

If you are unable to control yourself then we respectfully request that you find another group to play with.
