Report

Five flights with 18 LC’s played Bukit Kemuning in slightly more drier conditions than the last expedition here. The course was in generally good shape although the greens were heavily sanded and many of them very fast making putting a challenge for most golfers. We had the pleasure of Joe Zorich returning for a visit to Malaysia who joined us and who shot a good round of 86 for 32 points.
The winner of the day was Gordon Wingate with 89 gross and 50 points (cut 14). After languishing for many weeks in the high handicap zone, so this was a well deserved win and not too soon we may add! Runner up was Allan McNicoll with a round of 96 and 43 points (cut 1). Well done Allan – first time on the role of honour list. Best gross of the day was Ted Parslow with an 81.
Post game lunch was kindly arranged by Barry Cousins at the nearby Fu Yuen Seafood Restaurant – some excellent food and appropriate quantities of liquid beverages to wash down the food. We were joined by a sprightly looking Richard Moss who promises to join us next week for his first post-hip replacement  game.

Report

Two tee boxes were booked but the club decided not to honour the booking and the last 2 flights, started from the 6th, which also delayed their tee off times. Apart this small problem, everybody had a good day on this excellent course, which was in very good condition and the greens were true but played a little slow.

I had the pleasure of watching the winner, Ted Parslow play his best round of golf for many years. He only missed two greens in regulation, and was 4 under after the first 6 holes. A couple of short putts missed and his last hole the 5 th, par 5, he was still level par, off the tee, but some very bad
luck cost him a shot. His iron from the tee ran off the fairway and he had an unplayable lie, all contributed to a 2 over round , 74 . Sorry Ted you are only cut 15 points. Next week h/cap 2…!! In second place on count back , from Hans, was Kevin Wiggins with 84 for 41 points. Cut only 1.

Many thanks to Hans Berger for the vouchers he very kindly donated today, which in effect, subsidised everybody’s golf and lunch today.

A very enjoyable day was had by all on this beautiful, and very well maintained course. The fairways were in excellent condition and the rolling greens were very true, as always. 

4 Full flights , with Mike Han joining the 4 th flight,to make a 5 ball. Great having Mike back with the LCs , and many thanks for his help in arranging the game and for paying for the beers. Much appreciated.


The birthday weekend…. Ted on Sunday, and Hans and Alan on Monday. Hans very generously paid for lunch and Alan provided 4 sleeve of balls. Thank you both and happy birthday. No singing like at Ted’s … shame. 


The winners of the sleeves. 

Lowest Gross Geoff Mclaws, 84

1 st place Andrew Robinson

5 th place ocb( from Ray Funnell) Iain Wise

9 th place Mathew Katakis


The winner on the day, (with his high handicap) was Andrew Robinson with 94 for 42 points. Cut only 6. Andrew is now away for the next 3 weeks.  Have a safe trip.  Even using the bonus points I could not separate Kevin Wiggins, 87, for 39  and Bernard Rohman 90, 39 , so a convenor decision, cut them both by 1 …!!  Gordon escaped the cut because of less bonus points.

LOOSE CANNONS vs LEGS CHALLENGE MATCH

And a good time was had by all.  9 Pairs teed off on time in very pleasant conditions , with a 4 point start. The club had organised the bags and buggies well and the ladies enjoyed their fruit platters and welcome drink, courtesy of the LCs . 

The match was based on better ball stableford.   Efforts were made to try and get the handicaps and the pairings to provide close matches.  This was achieved with the match being all square at 4 1/2 games each. On total aggregated handicaps the ladies achieved 9 more points…!!

The ladies winning pair with 47 points was Camilla and Nancy. Camilla recording a gross of 75…. The men’s winning pair was Paul and Mathew with 50 points.

23 players turned out in excellent golfing conditions, got hotter later on, and we played the Alam Shah and Presidents 9s. The president 9 has recently been reopened and the greens were very ” new” and sandy, and compared to Alam Shah very slow. 

The winner on the day, Erol Akinci with 94 for 44 points, which after the cut of 8 brings his h/cap to more normal levels… Second place was Kevin Wiggins with 86 for 43 points, on count back from Andrew Robinson. Kevin cut only 1. Lowest gross was Geoff Mclaws with an excellent 78.


It was Andre’s last game with us , for a while, as he is going back to Scandanavia . He kindly donated 4 sleeve of balls for the NTPs.  


The winners were:


Hole 2  Gordon Wingate  4 metres


Hole 8 Vincent Vijayan 2.5 metres


Hole 11Erol Akinci  16 metres


Hole 15 Geoff Mclaws



Also Taffy, after not such a good trip this year, with his health issues,leaves us for the cold fairways of N. Wales.   We all look forward to both of you returning back to LC s and KL as soon as you can.


We also welcomed Hans Berger’s son Tommy who joined us on the day.
