Tuesday, Sept. 27, Pattavia – Stableford

On Tuesday we went with 2 groups to Pattavia.  The course and the greens were in very good condition and the weather was not too bad.  It was very quiet on the course and we could play at our own pace.

We had some good scores, but one was far ahead of the rest.  Paddy Devereux (H/cap 19) played a superb back nine of 25 stableford points after a good front nine of 19, so he was the winning man with 44 points in total.  In second came Willem Lasonder (23) with 40 points.

The near pin awards went to Martin Hayes, Willem Lasonder and Paddy Devereux.

Thursday, Sept. 29, Crystal Bay – Stableford

We drove up to Crystal Bay on Thursday.  It had been a long time since we last played here and we were curious about the condition of the course.  We played the B and C courses and after rain the night before the course and the greens were still in good condition, although no carts were allowed on the fairways.

The weather was very hot at the beginning but a nice breeze came along later.

Paddy Devereux confirmed his good form this week and won with 39 points.  Taking second today was Martin Hayes with 37 points.

Only one near pin was claimed and that went to Willem Lasonder on the last par 3.
