Another split round today with the main group of twenty-seven going to the scheduled venue Pattavia whilst another group of twelve went to Bangpra. It would be difficult to find two more contrasting courses, one brown, dry, and hard with the other lush green and in very fine condition.

Another winning score of forty-two points for the week, this time going to Brendan Harnett although a seven-stroke difference between his PSC and his home handicap did raise some eyebrows and served to highlight an issue that we need to address. A countback to decide second and third where Kob Glover took it over Jon Dean. Yet another good score from Ken Davidson saw him take fourth with thirty-six points whilst a countback decided fifth and sixth where Geoff Parker got the better of Tony Robbins. For the third time this week Mike Milland got a near pin, nice to see Geoff Williams also got one with Paul Smith taking two. A big week is in store next week with the memorial being played at Treasure Hill on Wednesday, for the first time since the pandemic, sadly we have a few more names to add to the trophy this year with the passing of PJ Redmond, Geoff Cox, and Ken Elmore. With several players showing very good form it will be interesting to see who does the business, also there will be keen competition for the team prize, or could it be that as regularly happens at Treasure Hill the course will sort out the men from the boys?
