Results

Only 14 players teed off as a result of a no show and a late withdrawal, resulting in 2 three balls.

Unusually at the moment the weather was cool and overcast and some rain on the back 9. Along with the weather and the recent “piggy attacks” the scores were higher than expected. 

The winner with an excellent 89 for 40 points was Stuart Taylor, cut 4 . Second was Glen Wombwell with 100 for 38 points. Cut 1. Lowest gross was Ted Parslow with 87. 

A good lunch was had at the Dengkil Seafood Restaurant in Dengkil on the suggestion of Andrew Robinson.

Discussions agreed at the lunch.

1) USGA H/Cap system will be used after Stuart has checked all running OK with the software. Aim to start for the first game in August.  Capping to be set at 3 over h/cap.
The basis will be on all rounds played in 2013.  Review in 3 months to check all working well and the desired results are being achieved.

2) Starting immediately LC s will play to the rules of golf. Local club rules to apply, if relevant. Inclement conditions, requiring pick and clean to be announced on the day by the convenor.

17 players turned out in very pleasant conditions and we teed off on time from 2 tee boxes on the Hills course. The course was in excellent condition and the greens were true and fast. A little slow play , especially as we caught up with the walkers. 

A very surprising situation happened at registration when it was discovered that that the club only accept Mycad and not passports as proof of age… The situation was discussed after the game with management and we will wait and see what the result is. Will we play at this excellent course again ??

The winner on the day was Kevin Wiggins with an excellent 86,for 43 points, cut 7. Bernard Rohman was second with 90 for 41 points. Cut only 1.

Only 12 players, eventually turned out for the Trophy game at Perangsang. Numbers were down as a result of concern over the haze. As it turned out only light haze was experienced and on the second nine the sun actually broke through. Considering the past few days, conditions were much better than predicted, and in fact quite pleasant…. The course was dry and good runs and some unlucky bounces were had by all. The greens were slow, after heavy watering on the front 9 , but the back 9 which had been lightly sanded were fast and true.

The winner on the day , and breaking his duck was Graham Cadman with a 94 for 45 points, cut 9. Well done. He beat , what in effect turned out to be a head / head match with Aftab Ahmad 94 for 42 points. Cut 1. Lowest gross was by Geoff, 82. Full results attached.

This was Aftab’s last game for a couple of months as he is off to California. Safe trip.


10 players enjoyed a superb meal at Selayang Tang Dynasty, the recently renovated restaurant, where we were also made most welcome.
