Sunday 17th November 2019 Riverside

Posted on November 19, 2019 by rogerfinnie

The Day

The last round of the Jakarta Inter-league 2019 Season saw 68 golfers turn out at Riverside on what was a beautiful golfing day; 34 of them joining the Tee Set regular event. The course was playing in perfect condition, still running fairly fast but freshened up with a little rain over the past week.

The day kicked off with Bloody Mary’s and other refreshments put on by the JIL Committee thanks to the coordination and sponsorship of Asia Serv and Jack Calcote. After the round, we had our usual end of season BBQ kindly coordinated by Tin Cups’ Captain Iris Rothenberg. A warm thank you to both of them for the arrangements.

In addition to the 3 matches being played with JIL, we had a further 5 flights of golfers. Unfortunately, play was a little slow as we were teeing off after a morning competition but we were all finished in good time to enjoy the end of season BBQ, recognize the Tee Set winners of the day and the overall winners of the JIL competition.

A warm Tee Set welcome back to Phil Mckean (who predated the data-base and therefore fell into the newcomers bracket), and both Christain Engstrom (254 weeks) and Jess Kindler (84 weeks) who are just a little more regular!. This week was also the last week of the current visit for Mike Taylor and we wish him a safe return home – see you all again soon.

 

Many thanks to VP Ric Wymer for taking care of the scoring and presentations as well as to Jens Roestel and Simon Oxley who assisted with the administration on the day.

The Play

A few misunderstandings from the reporting on the score sheets as we had no skirt on the day, nor any eagles…. and as our Most Strokes and Monster Putter winner, Oliver Fritz, had already departed, our Treasurer was to finish the day empty handed. On his last round before heading home, Mike Taylor put in a sterling effort on his back nine to win Most Improved. Lis Wymer and Graham Parsonage shared First Birdie whilst Jari Antikainen had Low Putts and Brett Shields 1st Sandy.

Continuing a run of form, Roger Finnie took home Low Gross whilst our Low Net winners on the day were Santi Miller, Jens Roestel and Timo Karonen.

Congratulations to our winners and the detailed results are here: Riverside Results 17-11-19

In the JIL presentations, a warm vote of thanks was given to Peng Siong and his team at Riverside as well as to all the Team Captains and Committee who ensured the season went smoothly. A further warm appreciation to Iris and Jack for ensuring everyone was well fed and watered during the party.

Tee Set under the leadership of Captain Simon Oxley had a much improved JIL season, ultimately finishing 2nd on the table after last year’s wooden spoon. The mantle of the wooden spoon was taken up by Sandbaggers whilst Tin Cups again proved too strong and retained the Cup won in 2018 – metaphorically at least as the actual cup seems to have gone walk-about and we had to use a model-double for the occasion.

This Sunday we take the short trip down to Junction 19 on the Jagorawi toll to visit the excellent Riverside course.

Green fees of Rp850,000 including a shared cart and some free range balls with a tee time of 11.30pm: please be there before 10.30am as we will have a shot-gun start so it takes a little more time to get bags/players organized and out to the respective holes

Sunday 10th November 2019 BSD

Posted on November 11, 2019 by rogerfinnie

The Day

Fresh from attending the Remembrance Sunday service and laying a wreath along with, inter alia, other Society representatives, President & JSAS Chieftain Roger Finnie hot-footed it home to change and head out to BSD to be joined by 32 other Tee Setters.

The course was quiet which meant we got a slightly earlier than scheduled tee off and although a pre-storm wind kicked up around the turn, we were all to finish in good time under bright sunny skies. First groups were back in under 4 hours and all the prize-giving completed around 5pm, leaving plenty of time for many of us to head off to join Axel Hertzke and his family at Casa de la Mexicana for a post round social.

The greens were in great condition and the fairways running fast so some good scores were returned on the day as further mentioned below. No new comers this week but we did welcome back the 2 Hertzke brothers who were out visiting Axel again, Jochen after 196 weeks and Kai after 45 weeks. A warm welcome back also to Kim Pham after 38 weeks.

Thank you to VP Ric Wymer for managing the scoring and reporting on the day and to the BSD team who looked after us to make the visit very enjoyable for all.

The Play

Playing off the White Tees and with the hard fairways, the Treasurer was not expecting any Skirts so he was pleasantly surprised to have a solitary contribution on the day which he able to collect at the after party from our host Axel Hertzke.  No Monster Putter on the day and unfortunately our Most Strokes, Timo Toivonen, had already gone by the prize-giving so no photo to enliven our album. Bill Lloyd took home First Birdie and Kai Hertzke First Sandy whilst Aljosja Van Dorssen and Tan Chee Hua were both happy to share the prize for Most Improved.

Although beaten in a count-back for Low Net A, Mark Johnson was our Low Putter on the day whilst Jeff Landau took home Low Gross. Joseph D’Cruz was out Low Net on the day after a 66 to take home B grade where he was joined by Roger Finnie and Timo Karonen as our other Low Net winners on the day.

Congratulations to all our winners and the results are here: BSD 20191110 Results and photos here.

Sunday 3rd November Gading Raya

The Day

A thank you to Gading Raya who hosted us at short notice and made their usual strong effort to ensure we had a good day out with arrangements on the course and in the club house going smoothly. The strong turnout of 40 Tee Setters enjoyed a good day out and some excellent scores, both gross and net, were returned. A SNAFU in the administration process means we cannot recover the usual reporting templates but nevertheless we are able to provide some colour on the day as usual.

One newcomer this week with Andy Coop receiving a warm Tee Set welcome. Our welcome backs were all impressive returnees with Mike Taylor, Joe Alchi, Maurice and Pandit Dres all back after about 1 year and Aljosja Van Dorssen after 32 weeks.

The Play

Gading Raya is a friendly, fairly flat course but still with the capability to catch the unwary and our 3-way tie for Most Strokes of 10 between Simon Oxley, Joe Alchi and Frank Wilson pleased the Treasurer after the rather low return of 2 skirts from Joe Alchi and newcomer Andy Coop. A welcome back but clearly not having practiced with the flat stick in between games saw Maurice Dres claim Monster Putter after 47 strokes on the greens. Joe however was able to recover his fine by claiming First Par for Handicaps >=30.

Simon Oxley also recovered his fine with Most Improved, Dave Prosser and Pandit Dres shared First Birdie and Richard Mau scored First Sandy. Aljosja Van Dorssen was our Low Putter on the day after 27 Putts.

Our Low Gross after an excellent 76 went to Jeff Landau. Low Net prizes saw the continued good form of both Anna Wilson and Brett Shields after net 66’s and they were joined by a welcome return to form Mark Johnson who scored a net 69.

Congratulations to all our winners on the day. The A team was back this week to handle proceedings so a big thank you to VP Ric Wymer for taking charge of the day and our secretary Beby for the registrations and scoring as well as catching up with a little backlog of handicap entries. Detailed results as recovered are here: Gading Raya Query_ Results History

Next Up: BSD Sunday 10th November 2019 12pm

This Sunday sees us return to the popular and excellent Bumi Serpong Damai course. We have an 12.00 pm start and the price is unchanged from 2018 at Rp999k including cart.

The 2019 Tee Set Championships will be held on Sunday 24th November 2019 at Matoa Nasional, just under 2 1/2 weeks from today!!. As of this morning, we have 86 players signed up already so its looking like another bumper event.

Sunday 27th October 2019: Cengkareng

Posted on October 28, 2019 by rogerfinnie

The Day

After last week’s quieter turn-out, this week was a bumper Sunday with 55 Tee Setters arriving to the ever popular Cengkareng course to enjoy an excellent day out. Despite the Jakarta marathon causing some diversions in town, everyone was able to arrive in good time and our 14 groups headed out as scheduled. The course itself was quite busy but after a slightly slow start, we all managed to get round without undue delay with the last groups getting in before the light faded.

Our numbers were boosted by 11 newcomers this week, a mixture of soon to be regulars and visitors with a warm Tee Set welcome to Jon Goddard, Joakim Elmquist, Janson Yong, James Bristow, Hidekazu Sato, David Foong, Carl Lund, Lo Ten Haven, Nathan Farley, Juha Suomi and Anton Rusli.

 

Some large welcome backs too with Roger Thompson heading the way after 231 weeks; joined by Ian Butcher, Holger Molendyk, Barry Widjaja, Jongchun Kim, Rosie Putri and Arne Tjaden. The only challenge we had fitting everyone in was the formatting of our summary sheet as you will see below… it was a pleasure to see everyone again and no surprise we were last to leave the club house well after 8pm.

Many thanks to VP Ric Wymer for managing the scoring summary and Secretary Beby for the registrations despite not being here this week and to those willing hands on the day: Dave Prosser, Audie Kaunang, Ian Butcher and Santi Miller.

The Play

Some excellent scores returned but as always at Cengkareng there were many fines to keep the Treasurer happy this week too. Monster Putter was shared between Holger Molendyk and Hidekazu Sato whilst Cucu Chandra had a Happy Gilmore moment on hole 5, eventually getting over on the 5th attempt as she secured Most Strokes by quite some way. However, equally impressive was the return on skirts with Bill Lloyd, Dan Javier, Don Duttlinger, Ian Butcher, Jari Antikainen, Oliver Fritz, Roger Thompson, Tapio Jarvenpaa, Matthew Makarenko and Timo Karonen all getting honorable mentions in dispatches.

With Oliver having departed, Matthew Makarenko was to recover his fine with Most Improved whilst the ladies cleaned up on our “1st” awards, Santi Miller for 1st Sandy and Aurelie Neufkens for 1st Birdie – both on the First!. Low Putts went to newcomer David Foong.

Low Gross went to Carl Lund for his excellent 79 off the stick whilst our Long Drive prizes were taken home by Cucu Chandra and James Bristow. Not quite defending his monthly medal, Tom Grace did not go home empty handed as he took out the Nearest the Pin prize. Before the main prizes were awarded, we also took the opportunity to reunite Jari Antikainen with his Match Play winners trophy from 2017… last in his possession at the 2017 championship party and a very good example of why the event should not be missed…. sign-ups below for 2019…..

Our monthly medal was a very close run competition with a 3-way tie on 42 points. Jochen Overberg and Exra Alexander were the unfortunate runner-ups having to be content with Low Net C & B where they were joined by Arne Tjaden as Mark Fiorello had already had to depart. Winning the count-back and taking home the Monthly Medal after 25 points on the back 9 was Anna Wilson.

Congratulations to all our winner and the detailed results are here: Form_ Current Results Cengkareng 271019

Next Up Cengkareng Sunday 27th October 2019

Posted on October 24, 2019 by rogerfinnie

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

Tee Set Championships Registrations now open

The 2019 Tee Set Championships will be held on Sunday 24th November 2019 at Matoa Nasional, just under 2 months away!!.

Sunday 20th October 2019 Jagorawi

Posted on October 21, 2019 by rogerfinnie

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
