Event Report: 19th October – Kedaton, Tangerang

Event Overview

On the 19th of October, TeeSet organized a memorable outing at Kedaton Golf Course, located in far Tangerang. Despite the distance, 24 enthusiastic golfers made the journey to experience what is often described as the flattest course in Jakarta.

The Challenge of Kedaton

At first glance, Kedaton Golf Course appears unthreatening, especially from the white tees. However, appearances can be deceiving. The course is characterized by its narrow fairways, which are tightly lined with trees, demanding accuracy off the tee. In addition, players must contend with numerous strategically placed bunkers that guard both fairways and greens, making every shot a potential test of skill and composure.

Winners

Only one player was able to manage 36 Stableford points last Sunday, Rey Moore. This earned her the respect of her fellow players and some money more importantly.

Andrea took low gross with a nice 84 with Claudio struggling with back stiffness over the closing holes.

Returning to TeeSet after spending most of the year on the Contimnent were Anna & Frank, who both picked up prizes. Anna low putts,31 and Frank first birdie.

Highlights and Memorable Shots

The day featured several impressive moments on the course. Notably, Michael executed a remarkable fairway bunker shot, sending the ball 145 metres to the green and securing a well-earned sandy par. This shot drew admiration from fellow players and highlighted the importance of precision and control when navigating Kedaton’s hazards. Preciision and control are rarely used in a sentence when people talk about Michael’s golf. No doubt there was a sprinkler head involved with that shot.

Earlier, both Thomas and Michel had achieved sandy pars on a previous par 5, a feat that was recognized with the prestigious Sandy Par prize. However, in a twist of fate, neither Thomas nor Michel attended the post-round presentations to receive their prizes. Additionally, despite Michael’s outstanding sandy par, he was overlooked during the prize distribution, leaving his achievement unrecognized in the official proceedings.

Conclusion

The outing at Kedaton Golf Course was a true test for all participants, combining the deceptive layout of the course with the camaraderie and competitive spirit that TeeSet is known for. While the fairways may be flat, the course’s challenges and the stories that emerged from the day prove that there is much more to Kedaton than meets the eye.

Congratulations to all who took part, and special recognition to those who mastered the course’s tricky bunkers. We look forward to seeing everyone at the next TeeSet event!
