Paul and Helene Top Flights

Once again Treasure Hill prepared a sparkling, well manicured course for us, and greens that were true and had some pace.

Thirty Three Golfers came along to take advantage of a great course and still paying the much appreciated price of 1250 bht for G/fee, Caddy and Cart.

What strange weather we are having right now.

It appeared most of the round that it might rain, but didn’t, but a few sprinkles on the windscreen of the bus on the way home told us there was some around. By early evening, during presentations at Links Bar, the promise of rain came good, short but sweet.

Treasure Hill is not known for allowing good scores, however, some players today were out to prove that it could be done.

“A” flight saw a well played 38 points from Paul Chesney to take the honours, closely followed by Phil Davies on 37 points. Ray Banks won the Green Jacket on Monday and continued that form today with a fine 36 points to take third spot.

The magic number this time was 38, as Helene Lindberg scored that many to have another top three placing, this time winning “B” flight.

Tip Briney was surprised to take second spot with 32 points, and happy about it.

Charlie Leon was over the moon with his 31 points straight after the game, his best for a long time he told me. Not sure he believed it when that score got him third place.

We were able to pay two flights today, along with 4 near pins and Best Nines.

Winning the near pins were:

John Evans (No.2), Ray Banks (8), Niall Caven (13), Martin Patch (17)

Best Front Nine ( non winners)…. . Simon Watts……….18 pts

Best Back Nine ( non winners)…… Ronnie Ramsey…….19 pts

Winner …”A” flight…….Paul Chesney (19)…………….38 pts

2^nd Place……………………Phil Davies (12)……………….37 pts

3^rd Place…………………….Ray Banks (14)……………….36 pts

Winner…”B” flight……..Helene Lindberg (22)………..38 pts

2^nd Place…………………Tip Briney (20)……………………32 pts

3^rd Place…………………Charlie Leon (27)…………………31 pts

Looking at the lower end of the scoring, we wondered just how low the score would be for the “wig” and sunglasses. It was very low…not telling, but the recipient was a newcomer to Links.

Tony Mc Lean was a late entrant and a deserved winner of that coveted prize.

Phil Davies presented Paul Chesney with his first Green Jacket.

Of course the rain came back heavier as I started the trudge home.
