It wasn't the best weather of the weekend and the course wasn't in the best condition we have ever experienced but it was clear to see that the ladies and men attending the Founders event were excited by the thought of starting our 10th season.

Proceeding started with Andre handing over his captains duties to Paul Tennant. It was a successful year for Andre and hope that it will be the same for Paul.

Despite the readjusted mens handicaps it was a day of high scoring in sometimes difficult scoring conditions. The winner was James McIntyre with an impressive 41 points Methinks the handicap axe is being sharpened. Nina won the Ladies event - check out her opening tee shot below.

Mike R got nearest the pin with a good one but Annabelle got closer for the ladies.

Ally won the money hole and immediately exchanged it as down payment for a new Titans Shirt.

Deeks may have been surprised that 20 handicapper Greg out drove his own mighty effort but both picked up the long drive categories. Deeks also showed his class by securing NP2 as well. Charles Lutyens picked up the guest prize although truth be told there may not have been a lot of competition!  Well done anyway.

Nina does not look too happy with her first tee off but it looks good to us and was good enough to land her the trophy.

But he is more than a has-been. He is the new Titans captain. He is 4 times major winner Paul Tennant.  Have a great year.

Well, for those of you, who feared the worst (weather wise) you couldn’t have been more wrong.  A glorious sunny morning, and not even really chilly, meant that the 13 Titans who turned up had great fun.  I can’t say that all the golf was as brilliant as the weather but there were some interesting results.  Will won by 1 shot from Graham who pipped Nick on count back.  Rita beat Fay (and where were the rest of the ladies?).  Both Rita and Will maintain their positions at the top of their respective leader boards.  Charles nearly got a hole in one on the second so got his birdie and Will got one on 7th but no more.  Graham got nearest the pin but no ladies on the 9th green.  

Titans may be frustrated with soggy fairways and water filled bunkers, but spare a thought for West London golfers 74 years ago. Personally I like rule 7. A one shot penalty seems harsh though!
