Tuesday, May 7, Crystal Bay – Stableford

1st Jon Haugen (10) 32pts

2nd Ian Henderson (15) 28pts

3rd Dave Richardson (24) 27pts

Crystal Bay was the game today and after a quick check-in teed off on C1 35 minutes ahead of our scheduled start time.  Welcomes went out to Marie and Lionel Rowles from Sydney, Ian Henderson from Melbourne and the return of Tore Eliassen, Jon Haugen and Esra Duangsri.

Conditions today were sweltering and despite the course being in fine condition, the weather led to poor some scores.  The course was fairly empty so we had a quick round of 3 hours and 45 minutes.

Jon Haugen was the winner with 32 points ahead of Ian Henderson in second and Dave Richardson

Thursday, May 9, Khao Kheow A&C – Stableford

1st Surap Korboon (10) 42pts

2nd Ed Wykoff (11) 41pts

3rd Ian Henderson (15) 38pts

4th Wanta Dacha (9) 35pts

It was off to Khao Kheow Country Club on Thursday to play the A and C loops and when we arrived the course was not busy so we got off 25 minutes early under still sunny and hot skies.  A threatening thunderstorm with 3 holes left to play caused us to stop for a few minutes to let the storm pass with only a sprinkle of rain.

The course on the day was in good condition with the B loop closed for the returfing of several holes, probably not opening until the high season.  Even with the storm threat we managed to get around in a little over 4 hours,

Welcomes went out today to Ed Wykoff and Surap Korboon and a goodbye to Ian Henderson, back to Aussie.

Surap Korboon was the winner with a whopping 42 points, while Ed Wykoff was just behind with 41.  Ian henderson was third and Wanta Dacha completed the podium in fourth.
