Monday, Jan. 21, Century Chonburi – Stableford

The day’s game today was up the route 331 for 55 minutes to Century Chonburi – the cheapest of any course around.  We checked in and were off the first tee 20 minutes early under delightfully sunny skies and a good breeze.

The course on the day was dry with slowish greens up hill.  It looks to be dry because the installed sprinkler system is out of commission.  It was also noted upon completion of the 4½ hour round and back in the building that the bookkeeper was doing the books manually and the boss was playing cards on the computer.  All in all you can’t go wrong for 200 baht.

A whole bevy of welcomes went out today, to  Jim Covington from BC, Ben Browning, working from Coventry, Ann Winfield, Ronnie Ratte, Mark O’Callahan and Brendon Ruddy from Ireland and also Scott Brehaut from Guernsey.

Two flights today with the cut at handicap 20 and the full monty of near pins.

Jan Lovgreen won the A flight with a fine 38 points while Michelle Sancillo was second on a count back from Ted Morris, both on 36 points, and Kjeld Ravn took fourth ahead of Richard Kubicki.

Eddie (the eagle) Glinsek won the B flight with 36 points ahead of Svend Gaarde in second Peter Bygballe third and Kai Aabling and Mike Winfield completing the podium.

Plutaluang West and North layouts were the test today and we checked in and were off the first tee 20 minutes early under mixed overcast skies with a hint of rain as we saw some wet roads close to the course, but no rain ever came.  The course was in fine condition with the greens having a good pace.
