PSC Golf from Siam Country Resort

Tuesday, August 25, Greenwood – Stableford

On Tuesday we took the long road to Greenwood.  This is a very nice course and has been well maintained throughout the low season, in particular we found the greens were a good speed and running very true.

It was a lonely feeling playing today as we had the course all to ourselves.  Our golf was the usual mix of highs and lows and despite having three 8’s on his card Paddy Devereux (h/cap 22) emerged the surprising winner with 37 points.

Thursday, August 27, Phoenix – Stableford

It was the short road to nearby Phoenix on Thursday, which again was in very good condition with quick greens.  The caddies were well turned out with nice new push trolleys, a change from the usual bit of old scrap iron they usually have to drag round most courses.

Today we deviated from our usual format as the first prize was a free bungy jump.  The winner was Neil Harvey (16) with 36 points and the unfortunate loser with 39 points was Tony Wakefield (17) who played consistently well throughout his round.

Note: Siam Country Resort, Restaurant & Bar is located just off Siam Country Club Rd, after going under the arch past the 7/11, turn right after 50 meters, with the venue on the left another 200 meters along.  Golf from here is generally played on Tuesday & Thursday, with the Resort hosting prompt presentations on both days.  As a PSC affiliated venue we welcome ALL golfers, including ladies & seniors (>60s) who have opted for the “Silver” tee option.  Call 089 2535440 (Willem Lasonder) for scheduling or enquiries.
