Hail the D.O.G.S.!!!!!
So, we're getting closer to the business end of our final Eclectic Series of 2024 with the 4th round. We split the round into Friday morning and the usual Saturday afternoon so those going to the St Andrew's Ball on Saturday evening could do so nice and relaxed. In total we had 35 players including Frank & Anna Wilson who are not new to Jakarta but new to the D.O.G.S. - welcome!
Well, after the heavy rains of last week we could not have had more of a contrast this week with just about perfect conditions for golf - not too hot and a nice breeze and not even the slightest suggestion of thunder, lightning or rain - if only it could be like that every week!
So, to the play: well it was Rey Moore's week - she took both the Longest Drive prizes and one of the Drive & Pitch honours. Frank Wilson took the other Drive & Pitch prize. Jude Alexander took one of the Nearest to the Pin prizes with the other going to Daniel Park. Daniel also took the Lowest Gross prize home this week as well, so a good week for him. Anthony Quigley seemed to enjoy the great weather having decided to soak up more of the scenery than the rest of us taking both the Booby Prize and the Most Exercise Trophy.
Colin Shanks continues he quest to see his handicap come down managing to take the Runner up prize leaving Dewi Wardoyo, who's handicap is also coming down, to take the Little Dog - or she will when next we see her - becoming this week's Champion.
A big congratulations to all our winners this week!
So, with 4 rounds complete the outrageous Frenchman continues to hold on to his lead with a further improvement this week - another birdie!. The chasing pack are all jockeying for position but can anyone catch Nic Verdenal? We still have 2 rounds to go so let's see! You can check out the full results here.
Hot off the Press! At the time of writing news has just come in of John Gustke's 3rd Hole in One this year on number 9 of the Valley course at Gunung Geulis. Well done John - quite a few good days in that household - Wifey gets the Little Dog and Hubby a HIO!
