Considering the little-fella’s off season activities the lack of practice was a concern for the coaching staff. However a very creditable par 4 bogey at the end of nine holes at Stondon (Mount Pleasant – 9-hole course) beating daddy on that hole to boot, gave us some faith. However a medal winning return to action the following day was not to be. After recording only 16 pts (36 when handicap applied) he finished 10th. Reaching for the Sir Alex Ferguson book of excuses, we blamed lack of practice and nasty pin positions on some of the greens.. on the positive side however his bunker play was none to shabby and a 4 for 4 bogey on the final hole, courtesy of a ‘members bounce’ from the tee shot left him just of the edge of the green, we felt confident that the happy dance would be seen again soon. Watch this space for round 2!
