Money List Winner
Back home from Eaton Golf Club now. The round started well with a nice par on the first, I then had a double but then another couple of pars so nice 2 under level bogies after 6, had a complete miss on the 7th, hit the ground about 6 inches behind the ball and ended up with a triple bogey, also a double on the ninth so one over after 9 but bang on my handicap.
I had a couple of pars early on in the 2nd nine, but gave them away with a couple of doubles, so stood on the 18th tee I was 1 over bogies.
As my partners had gone very close to a pond down the right of the 18th, I aimed down the left, not too bad a drive but in the rough, no heroics I told myself just try and knock it down the fairway, introducing Mr Shank or whatever you call the shot I made, straight across the fairway into the right hand rough. Never mind it is a par 5, just get it onto the fairway, this I duly did about 120yds from the green. I take a 7 iron and Mr Shanks comes out for an encore, and the ball goes into the deep rough. I hack it out and final reach the green in 6, but then proceed to 3 putt for a ghastly NINE and a net 75, I was absolutely gutted!
So the far the best score in is 72, I am currently in 4th, with 100 out of the 120 players finished, so I do still have a Chance of finishing in the top 10 which would qualify my for the Grand Final. I am now sitting at home constantly updating the scoreboard.
