It was scratch player Dave Hutchinson and the red hot Phil Davies vying for the man of the match today.  Dave’s 41 point outburst was two clear of A Flight mate Aussie ‘leg end’ Bob Watson and yet three more in front of Kevin Waycott.  (It should be noted that Dave’s score was a gross 67 and contained a 2.)

Tuesday, August 5, Laem Chabang A & C – Stableford

A Flight

1st Paul Bray (6) 39pts

2nd Tom Gorey (14) 36pts

3rd Paul Hird (14) 36pts

B Flight

1st Phil Davies (19) 35pts

2nd Colin Davis (16) 31pts

3rd Nick Shaw (16) 30pts

Aussie star Paul Bray took A Flight and the man of the match honours with a very impressive 39 points.  He was also the only player to better par on the day at Jack’s fabulous creation Laem Chabang.

The two players who followed Paul up the podium steps needed a count back to separate them as both posted solid even par rounds.  The luck of the Irish prevailed as Co. Kilkenny man Tom Gory (who learnt all he knows from his pal Christy Good Knight) picked up the silver and the unlucky Paul Hird was awarded the bronze.

The man in red hot form, Welshman Phil Davis, added another flight victory to his already hot winners list as he topped the B Flight with 35 points.  The Donkey, who has been out to pasture recently, showed he might be on the road to recovery as he took the silver with 31 points.  Nick ‘Elvis’ Shaw rounded out the flight but needed the aid of a count back to render Robin Mangos pennyless at sea level.

Andre Van Dyke, Michael Healy and Lew Szigligeti shared the 2’s pot.

Wednesday, August 6, Treasure Hills – Stableford

A Flight

1st German Odermatt (12) 36pts

2nd John Pierrel (10) 34pts

3rd Jim Brackett (8) 32pts

B Flight

1st Phil Davies (19) 32pts

2nd Eddy Beilby (16) 30pts

3rd Nick Shaw (16) 30pts

Treasure Hills playing off the white tees is always a good test of golf and as the scores showed, no one managed to better par on the day.  German Odermatt did manage to play to his handicap to take A Flight and the match honours though.  German was two stokes clear of John Pierrel and a further two clear of big Jim Brackett.

Incredibly Phil Davis took charge of B Flight for his third win of the week, clearly a feat of incredible golf.  Phil’s 32 points was two clear of a pair of players, count back specialist Nick ‘Elvis’ Shaw and Eddy ‘the Eagle’ Beilby, but this time Nick came up second best in the count back as the ‘Eagle’ took the silver.

Paul Bray and Peter LeNoury split the 2’s pot.

Tuesday, August 5, Banyan C.C. – Stableford

1st William Peach (16) 41pts

2nd Freddy Starbeck (16) 39pts

3rd Peter Terry (20) 37pts

Wednesday, August 6, Black Mountain – Stableford

1st Freddy Starbeck (16) 39pts

2nd Barry Copestake (13) 35pts

3rd Paul V Smith (8) 32pts

As is evident from above, the lads and lasses had a full competitive schedule for the two day journey to Hua Hin and fun was had by all, as the organizer noted.

The first day the venue was Banyan Country Club and the winner was William Peach with a splendid 41 points.  Bill was two clear of Freddy ‘the quite one’ Starbeck and a further two clear of Peter Terry.

Black Mountain was the final venue and this suited Freddy Star beck down to the ground as he fired his second 39 points.  Barry ‘the Boot’ Copestake took the silver four shots in arrears and Paul V Smith tided up the flight on 32 points.  So it was Freddy Starbeck who was the leading baht collector of the week as I am sure he let everyone know.

Friday, August 8, Silky Oak – Stableford

A Flight

1st Kris Kristanjootha (8) 39pts

2nd John Pierrel (10) 39pts

3rd Nick Shaw (16) 39pts

B Flight

1st Peter Terry (20) 39pts

2nd John Ianson (26) 38pts

3rd Jimmy Day (20) 36pts

The day was a celebration of Aussie starlet Bruce Walters 50th birthday and he kindly put on a Lewiinski’s buffet after the presentation.

Four players vied for the man of the match today, with three of them coming from the senior flight as Kris K, John Pierrel and Nick ‘Elvis’ Shaw all returned with excellent 39 point hauls.  When the divots had settled it was Kris K who emerged with the flight gold as John took the silver, leaving Nick with his fourth bronze placing this week.

Peter Terry stood on the top of the junior flight podium with his own 39 points.  Terry was closely followed up the steps by John Ianson a shot adrift and Irishman Jimmy Day did what the society has been trying to do all week, knocking Phil Davies off the podium as he gained a count back verdict over Phil.

Rod Brown, Paul V Smith and Jimmy Day split the ‘2’s pot.  Back at the ranch the presentation went on a little longer than usual and it was just as well there was no golf the next day.
