GOLFWEEKLY
ALEXANDRIA GOLF CLUB
In last week’s news we were not able to give a complete set of results for the NG Kerk Golf Day. The Individual Stableford format saw *M Nkohla coming in 1st with a very good 40 points, with *A Dyantyi 2nd with 38 points and Siyabulela Mavuso 3rd with 38 points.
On Wednesday 6 July Hilton Delport came in with 34 points to win the Individual Stableford competition, in a count out with Likhona Fina. Third was Dave Nicoll on 31 points. The 3-ball of Alvin Bowles, Hilton and Dave won the Alliance on 71 points, while Pete Andrew won the Jackpot holes.
On Friday afternoon the Club hosted the first of a series of planned Junior Golf Days for the youngsters in the Ndlambe area. We had 25 young players, from scratch handicappers to beginners, play nine holes together and they all really enjoyed the afternoon. It was great to see how much potential there is amongst the young players in the area and we encourage anyone interested to join in when the next event is held.
On Saturday, a Betterball competition was played in ideal conditions with the partnership of Sizwe Mdaka and Trevor Hyson winning on 41 points from Likhona Fina and Thinus Smit, on 40 points. The Alliance was won by Owen Putzier, Pete Andrew, Sizwe and Trevor, with Owen winning the Jackpot holes. Binky duPreez won the two-club pot with a birdie on the 12th. The timing was just perfect for the start of the SA vs Wales test match and we were all a little disappointed in the lack of tries and the final result.
The next sponsored day to look forward to, is the Alexandria Methodist Church Golf Day scheduled for 6 August. It will be played as a Betterball Stableford and the cost will be R200. This will include a halfway house and a light meal after golf. Bookings can be made with Hanli on 046653-0207.
*These two golfers didn ’ t record their first names or phone numbers in the tournament register and because they were visitors, the club neither had their first names, nor their contact details to ask them.
