Phil was delighted to win at Merrist
It was a small group that enjoyed playing at the impressive Merrist Wood Golf Course today - Apparently there was some cricket game on that may have tempted some not to try their hand at golf - oh and a tennis match too. Merrist has been off the Champions tour for a 3 or 4 years because it was in poor condition when we last played it but it was in very good shape today.
Greg was delighted to win Magni for the first time. His fellow players were even more delighted.
The early running was made by Greg but his normal back 9 explosion meant that from a winning position he managed to win Magni! However he managed to win the long drive prize after no-one else hit the fairway. Indeed no regular players won the NP, the NP2 or the money hole!. Guest James did hit one close at the NP hole and guest Gary did likewise at the Money Hole. Both sank their birdie putts - but won nothing as guests. Unlucky.
Phil won Magni last time out but was the winner today with 27 points. Pete was second with 24 and Rob third with 23. Poor Greg trailed in with 22. James won the guest prize but the shot of the day was definitely Gary's drive on the third hole where he managed to hit the yellow tee marker almost as far as his drive! Amazingly the driver survived.

Gary with the tee marker that he smashed down the fairway!
Pete displays superior bunker play by sending the ball out right to catch the sharp slope to the right of the green (just out of shot!)
