Vincent Regis

We are on a roll!!!

After crushing BP last week, we were back Thursday evening at Zeegersloot for our last home game against Shell. And it well seems like we made Zeegersloot our home, as we got another large victory 5-1!

Detailed results:

Bob Horsman (9.0) – Vincent Regis (7.2) Win 1 up
John Colbran (9.0) – Paul McNamara (7.6) Win 4&3
Daz Saralis (10.3) – Erik van Ginkel (9.9) Win 1 up
Levente Tanka (11.6) – Rafael Lucas (15.4) Win 4&3
Simon Stanton (12.6) – Anders Elfving (19.2) Win 8&7
Andy Napper (15.2) – Anna Hjortnaes (20.7) lost 4&3

Next 3 weeks, we have a stretch of 3 away game (EPO, PIT, BP), starting Monday July 5th evening at the Rijswijkse, for the return match against EPO.

ESTEC team hasn’t lost a game so far (3 wins, 2 draws), and sits now at the top of the leaderboard with 2 points over BP.

The fifth and last round of Dunhill Cup was played last Saturday june 24th, in warm and humid conditions.

3 teams still had a chance to get the title Italy, the Netherlands and France. The Netherlands defeated Italy in a tight game 2-1, while France defeated Germania 2-1.

Vincent Regis 68 – 64 Hanna Jones
Rafael Lucas 57 – 63 Andreas Obst
Germania conceaded one game due to lack of players

Henk Wapstra 66 – 83 Stefano Capitanio
Nely Borst 65 – 65 Giuseppe Racca (Giuseppe won after 1st playoff hole)
Willem Borst 64 – 65 Luigi Fanchi (score off 36 hcp)

That leaves France and the Netherlands tied with 3 wins and one loss. But with 8 individual matches won against 7 for the Netherlands, it is France that get the Dunhill Cup for the 4th time running.

Rank	Participant	Played	Remaining	Match W-L	Set Wins	Pts

2	Netherlands	4	0	3 – 1	7	46

After the disappointing draw in our home game against PIT, the team was out for blood. And we showed no mercy to the BP team (The ladies were particularly ruthless), winning 6-0.

Henk Vlag vs Mary Gillies – Win 6&5
Sjoerd Gunnewijk vs Erik van Ginkel – Win 3&2
Carlo Eijkels vs Anders Elfving – Win 1 up
Arnold Bakels vs Anna Hjortnaes – Win 6&5

Very well done!!! The ESTEC team should now be near the top of the Bedrijf League leader board.

We play our last home game next Thursday July 1st, against Shell.

We have played our 2nd and 3rd game at our temporary home in Zeegersloot GC on Thursday June 3rd and Thursday June 10th.

ESTEC vs EPO @ Zeefgersloot:

Condition were ideal to play golf, with low winds and warm temperature. Things went well for our first home game with a victory 4-2 against EPO. Our low hcp performed better this time.

Paul McNamara : Lost 4&3
Vincent Regis: Win 2&1
Erik van Ginkel: Win 3&2
Andrew Murrell: Lost 5&4
Kjeld Hjortnaes: Win 4&3
Rob Jansen: Win 2&1

ESTEC vs PIT @ Zeegersloot:

In again ideal golfing conditions, we meet our South African friends of PIT. Their low hcp were quite strong and unfortunately managed to win some tight games. Thankfully our high hcp performed as well as usual and got us even at 3 – 3.

Vincent Regis: Lost 2&1
Erik van Ginkel: Lost 1 down
Rafael Lucas: Half
Brian Taylor: Half
Gijs Tan: Win 6&4
Kjeld Hjortnaes: Win 2 up

We are doing reasonably well with 2 draws and one win so far.

Next game is at home again, next week Thursday June 24th, against BP.
