Autumn Meeting - Sandy Lodge GC

7/9/2017

0 Comments

 
​The Autumn Meeting returned to Sandy Lodge this year, where someone seemed to have lost the keys to the mower shed – or, as one wit offered, the strimmer shed. The rough was wet, clingy, long and punishing, with a high probability of losing a ball only a few feet off the fairway. The greens were very true and fairly quick but overnight rain had made the bunkers hard and the fairways soft.
 
However, one player found no problems at all and walked away with the Gold Cup with a score of 41, playing off 6. Yes, Chris Jones triumphed on just his second outing this year and as the first was Captains Day/Spring Meeting, where he returned 34 points, he also took the Aggregate Cup with a total of 75.
 
Runner up was Edward Sawbridge with 36 points, with Captain Yang Liu coming in third with 35 and the average score for the day was 29.63. The guest prize was taken by Richard Pelly of Foxhills on a countback from Paul Jupp.
 
The Captain won the longest drive competition and David Hardy was nearest the pin.
 
The Johnson Pot – for over 16 handicap – was taken by Edward Sawbridge (17).
 
After an excellent but enormous lunch, the afternoon greensomes over 11 holes produced a lot of scores in the low 20s, but the runaway winners were Paul Jupp (Guest) and Steven Smith (AMT) with 27 points from Edward Sawbridge and Allan Kerr second with 23 on a countback from Ashok Singhania (Simportex) and John Ambery.
