The ladies playing midweek golf in Warwick were left in no doubt that Wednesday June 1 was the first day of winter with the cold winds blowing across the course all day,
A group of 16 women braved the midweek shiver and came out to play as the mercury failed to climb to any heights however the beautiful blue sky was a welcome sight.
The Stableford competition was generously sponsored by Rose City Premium Meats.
Paying little attention to the cooler conditions Melanie McLennan returned a winning score i34 points just in advance the ladies captain Roslyn Darton who also had a good round returning 33 points.
Yvonne Pinnington played a great front nine for an impressive 18 points taking home the Coffee Club Warwick voucher for the nine hole competition.
Featuring in the ball rundown were Anne Lyons (31points) and Annice Payne, Tub Ingall, and Janine Stewart all on 25 points.
Roslyn Darton, Maria Carey and Anne Lyons all had success at the Pro Pin on the fifth hole.
After the Golf course received another 38 mls of rain on Friday night and buggies unable to be used on the course, Saturday’s competition was cancelled.
Organisers and golfers will be hoping the sunshine and winds will have dried the course out this week so everyone can get back to normal playing conditions this weekend.
With so many wet weather interruptions there have been changes to the golfing program.
The President Foursomes will now be played this weekend beginning on Saturday with Quarter finals Sunday 12 June; Semi Finals Saturday 18 June and Final Sunday, 19 June. Please find yourself a partner and add both names on the timesheet at the club.
Ladies President, Marg invites everyone to the President’s afternoon tea which will be held on the deck on Saturday at the completion of play.
