Well the weather may have been cool, but the golf was hot. The course is in excellent condition, and the greens were pretty slick. With the first round of the Foundation Cup being played in conjunction with the first Monthly Medal for 2025, a total of 19 players are all in the mix for to decide the outcome next Saturday! Sponsor for todays Monthly Medal, Ian Pickering, was on hand to present Santo Cavallaro with his winners prize. Coming in with a nett 69, Santo was in fine form, especially with his approaches to the greens from within the 100 metre mark. Hot on his heels, taking out the runner up prize is the up and coming Hamish Adam. Playing off a handicap of 1, Hamish was unlucky to be pipped at the post. Hamish will be leaving us soon to continue his studies on the Sunshine Coast. It will be sad to see him go. Other winners for the day were Keith Jones on the third pin shot, Hamish on the 12th, and Barry Hughes taking out the 17th. Approach shots went to Hamish and Wes Smith. Even though he hasn’t been playing a lot lately, Rob Reeves found the greens to his liking by winning the putting competition. All in all, it was a great start to 2025.
