A brave group of six men and eleven ladies took on the threat of inclement weather at Tuesday’s Stableford, with conditions fortunately holding for a smooth round. Some members also competed in the Wintersun tournament in Mackay, showing the club’s competitive spirit.
Elspeth Scotford had a standout day, finishing as runner-up in the Tuesday competition while also claiming the nearest-the-pin award. The day also saw a remarkable achievement from Tiina Randmae, who scored a hole-in-one – every golfer’s dream.
In the ladies’ division, Robyn Whitham claimed victory with 32 points, followed by Anna Winterbourn on 29 and Jan Shuwalow on 28. David Woods led the men’s field with 33 points, with Nick Apruzzese runner-up on 31. John Roser also scored 31 but fell short on a countback, while Gerald Lovell finished with 30.
Notable pin shots included Tiina Randmae’s hole 13 ace, multiple efforts from Robyn Whitham, and solid performances from Ken Granger, Nick Apruzzese, John Roser, John Oates, and Peter Lindsay. Nick Apruzzese also chipped in on hole 18 for a birdie, capping a memorable day for the club.
