Results – Templer Park Golf & Country Club – 27th November 2018

IMG_3355

The monthly trophy game for November was held at Templer Park Golf & Country Club. The morning was very rainy and it was a much delayed start when our 4 flights eventually tee’d off from staggered tee boxes at around 9:30am or so. The course although wet and soft in many places was in good shape with the greens in excellent condition. Scoring of course under these difficult conditions were down as expected.

We ended up with 17 players due to a miscommunication/miscount by Bernhard who arranged the game but Ray Funnell kindly dropped out to allow 4 full flights to play.

We all finished by around 2pm and had a late lunch at the club. We were joined by our Convenor, Hans Berger, who came along to present the November Trophy award.

Kevin Wiggins kindly donated RM300 to the pot today to celebrate his recent 300th game … many thanks Kevin!

Results

The winner of the November Trophy was Bernie Schobert with a score of 90 for 32 points beating Peter Davies (96 for 32) on count back. Bernie didn’t stay for lunch so he will be passed the trophy later – we all enjoyed the benefits of his RM50 winnings which went into the pot. Best gross of the day was Paul Geddes with an 87.

There were only 8 players and 2 flights today for our game today at the wonderful Templer Park kindly arranged by Kaz Takita.

We got off early at just after 8:00am and with the course being very quiet we made good time around the 18 holes. The course was in fine condition but as always a little tricky to conquer. We all finished by 12:30pm and had a nice lunch in the clubhouse after the game.

We had one interesting situation today at the Par 5 12th hole where Stuart Taylor hit his first drive right and it was maybe 50/50 so he hit a provisional ball which was ok in the fairway. On getting down to the point where his first ball may have been a ball was suddenly and miraculoulsy thrown down from the slope by a monkey! There was a troop of them sitting up there at the top of the hill. There was no way to determine wher the original ball may have been so Stuart had to play the ball as it lay which was below a small wiry bush just off the fairway making his 2nd shot rather difficult. he got away with a luck bogey on that hole aftre two-hitting out the bunker then chipping in!! Must train that monkey a but better to throw the ball ON to the fairway!!

Results

The winner today was Stuart Taylor with a gross 87 (best of the day) for 35 points. Runner up was Siegmund Maierbrugger with 93 for 33 poimts. Full results below:

Results – Templer Park – 22 May 2018

Todays convenor with Martin, Bernard and Tony16 LCs teed off from Templer Park CC’s 1st and 10th tee at 8:30 under bright morning light.

The course was in its usual fine shape with rather fast green for front nine and bit slower green in the back nine.

We were not affected by rain the whole game but it was rather muggy with no wind which affected many players with their concentration (as they claim).  It might have been one of the factor for only 3 players scoring below 100 today.

Results

Winner was Geoff McLaws with 81 for 32 points. Runner up was a three-way tie between Bernard Romahn, Brian Stubbs and Kevin Wiggins all with 28 points. Best gross was Geoff with 81. Full results below:

With the main Loose Cannons group away to Malacca for 3 days tour there were 8 of us wanting to play here in KL so we played at the beautiful Templer Park Country Club. It was a stunning morning with bright blue skies but of course it was hot and humid. Even after the heavy rain of yesterday the course was in great condition and with few people playing it was to be a fairly quick round, at least for the first flight!

We had lunch after the game at the club which is a little expensive but very good.

As well as being the winner today, Geoff McLaws was also the loser ….. his mobile phone taken from the open buggy on the 18th hole by a monkey!! be careful guys and lock your valuables away.

Results – Templer Park – 1st July 2014

There were only 12 players at this week’s game, probably due to this time of year when many are away on leave. I was also out of play today as having just had some surgery on my voice box  last week decided to rest up. I will be back next week although running in “silent mode”. However as it was Ramadan there was a special rate for this fine course hence the reason to play here. 
Winner of the day was Tony Morris with a gross of 91 for 35 points. Glenn Sargeant scored 93 for 37 points but as he has as yet an unverified handicap and not played the requisite 5 games so he cannot win unfortunately. Second was Tom Holmes (welcome back Tom!) with 87 for 34 points. Full results below:

Results – Templer Park – 14th October 2013

Well ….TEMPLER PARK was in excellent condition, the fairways were holding a bit after the recent rains and the greens were as usual undulating and challenging but the scores  reflected a rather tough day…..

We welcomed a new father and son combination, the Laidleys, and Tom mentioned a few times at lunch that he had beaten his Dad again….Also welcomed Jason Winter and Robert Mulliss for their first and we hope regular games with the LCs.    

The winner, or should I say played less badly, was Ray Funnell with 103 for 33 points, cut 4. Second was Jason Winter with an excellent 82, the day’s lowest gross, for 32 points. Cut 1. His round also included a 2 shot penalty for hitting the wrong ball….. Full Results attached.

After the game a gargantuan “feast” was consumed at the Tang. Thanks Tony
for booking, slightly smaller next time please…..!!
