Results for 3rd December Vin O’Meara Xmas Cup round 1

Can I say it feel’s like only last month that this blogger posted his first comments. What a year! And, where did it go? The opening round of this years running of the Vin O’Meara marks the start of the 2012 season!

Looking back on what has been a memorable year, maybe somewhat better for some. There have been some fine performances, and matches played. Nothing refreshes a moment’s reflection than reading through old posts.

Onwards to the new year. FOr what seems like an eternity(2 weeks) the sun finally shone once more on it’s golfing faithful. The first round of the 2012 season commenced in ideal condition, and with the added pressure of a cash prize, the hardened players rose to the top.

Rodger Clarke(82), our halfway leader set a cracking pace, leaping out with a nett 4 under par card. Great round Rodger, which consisted of 2 birdies, and 3 triples! Have to add, much pressure follows a halfway leader in any tournament, and when googled less than 83% actually followed on for the victory. Given all that… All the best for this weekend Rodger, and well-played opening round.

Hot on our leaders heels heading into this weeks final round are Craig Sharp(78), and Jan Siemon(78), 65, and 66 respectively. Two golfers on their day can shoot fantastically low, but perhaps only when they get it all right on that day. Chasing our top three down will be four seniors, which seems to be a continuing trend already for the new year. Ken Grist(86), and Bob Mc’Donald(93) start their second round only 3 off the pace. While last years winner of this event Emilio Bassi(89) is joined by Mo Sabih(not available second round) 5 strokes short of Rodger.

Forecast for Saturday morning is favourable, and a red hot challenge can be assured. May the best horse win.

Last reminder for all perpetual trophies to be returned this week!!!
