Thursday saw a day on the course like no other I ever remember in my 10 years at the club. All bunkers were GUR! And looked like small ponds! Water flowed at an amazing rate, the dry pond almost split its banks, the qualifying competition was cancelled but we all enjoyed the 'Cup Winners Cup' and the 'Consolation Cup' congratulations go to:
- Cup Winners Cup - winner: Sarah F, nett 70
- Consolation Cup - winner: Hazel B, nett 70
I for one thought the course looked beautiful with all the water flowing, even though I was minus a few balls!
