Chairmans Challenge on Sunday 13 November at ESTEC

This is a pairs, better-ball, Stableford competition with the par for the course set by the Chairman and (former) Captain playing as a pair. They will set the new par for each hole which will be revealed after play has been completed.

The competition is non-qualifying and open to all club members of all handicaps but the maximum playing handicap will be limited at exact handicap 36.0.

Please sign-up as a pair if possible (pairs may be any combination of ladies and gentlemen) but ’singletons’ will be paired by the organisers. For the team event, pairs will be arbitrarily assigned to the Chairman’s or Captain’s team.

This will be the last Shotgun start of the season. Following on from the successful Captain’s Day we will have a ‘Walking Dinner’ at ~ €14 per person payable on the day. This will be served while the scores are sorted out – which can take a long time!

The tee-time of the shotgun start will be at 12:00. Please be in ESCAPE 11:15  at the latest.

Proware will be open shortly for registration. Please indicate under ‘Opmerking’ if you will participate in the dinner. Registration will close on Wednesday 9 November (12:00).

Walker and Club Championship report

On Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th of September, the Walker Cup and the Club Championship were played under the best conditions we could hope for. The course was still soft from the rain that fell the days preceding the event, but the weather was nice and warm, with very little wind. Prefect scoring conditions. The scores were indeed good.

Walker Cup

We had 25 participants for the combine 1st round of the Club Championship and Walker Cup, 14 cat 1 players and 11 cat 2.

The winner of the Walker Cup, by 4 points, was Tony Rosmalen with the incredible score of 44 points (75 strokes, the 5th best strokeplay score of the day). In 2nd place went to Rod Allen with 40 points, just one point ahead of Piet Hillebrand, 3rd with 39 points.

Congrats to Tony !

Club Championship

On the Club Championship side. After the first round things were pretty tight at the top of the leaderboard, with Vincent Regis leading by one with a solid 65 strokes, over Erik van Ginkel with 66 strokes. In 3rd, David Binns was still in contention with 70 strokes, 5 behind.

And the second round, Vincent broke away with a great 61, 3 over par round, increasing his lead over Erik to 5 that had a solid 65, and to 10 strokes over David Binns with a good 66.

But on the 3rd round both Vincent and Erik had run out of steam and came back with some pretty disappointing scores, 72 and 76 respectively. David on the contrary was charging back with an excellent 64, overtaking Erik for 2nd. But the lead built by Vincent was too big and David fell short 2 strokes. So thanks to his great 2nd round, Vincent Regis has successfully defended his Club Champion title !
