A resounding 5.5\/0.5 win"},"content":{"rendered":"<div>On another perfect winter&#8217;s day with preferred lies in the General Area, our Senior Teams Challenge side had a fantastic 5.5\/0.5 win at Wantima yesterday. It was the first time in my ten years of STC golf that we went through a day undefeated. In particular, our singles players produced another masterclass performance away from home.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Here are the individual match summaries:<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>1. Peter Lansom, who is relishing playing in the number one position (even though he denies this observation), had a rematch of his first round loss to Rob Perrin. Peter played solid golf early to take a three up lead.\u00a0 Around the turn Perrin came back with a couple of birdies but this time Peter was strong enough to hang on for a 2\/1 win.\u00a0 The highlight of the match was on the second hole. Peter&#8217;s second shot hit a tree and the ball could not be found.\u00a0 So he reloaded and then sank a 15 footer for a bogey which was good enough for a half! Well done Peter<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>2. The rather\u00a0casual Ian Burgess, who only\u00a0just made his tee time, was up against Klane Tomlins. Ian realised early that he had a battle on his hands and so he knuckled down for the battle which he eventually won one up on the last hole.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>3. Peter Hargreaves&#8217; opponent, Ian Boughy, didn&#8217;t know the\u00a0challenge he\u00a0faced when standing\u00a0on the\u00a0first tee, or even after five holes &#8211; Peter has\u00a0been in blistering\u00a0form of late. The match was all tied up as they stood on the sixth tee when Peter decided to put his foot down. He birdied six, seven and nine to be four up at the turn. Apart from losing the\u00a011th to a\u00a0birdie he won most of the next holes to close out the match for a convincing 6\/4 win. What a player!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>4. Clint Auty is another player who is starting to put in some great results. This time he was up against Jason Patterson, who received five strokes in this, the first of the handicap matches. Clint came out firing from the gun and was five up after seven holes! Patterson, using his handicap shots well with strokes on 8, 10, 12 and 16, then started to reel Clint in. The pivotal hole turned out to be the 6th (15th hole played). Clint knocked his second shot into the water but was good enough to get up and down to halve the hole and then held on for a 3\/1 win. Very solid win Clint<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>5.\u00a0 The first 4bbb match had Andrew Mullis and Richard Garnham up against Mal Logan and Ron Watson.\u00a0 This turned out to be a super battle of nerves with very little in the match right the way through. With a few holes to go Andrew and Richard (who had to give away three and four handicap shots), held a slender one up lead. They hung on to win by that margin on the 18th hole for an important win<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>6. The final 4bbb match paired Geoff Crozier and Rob Brown against Wantima team captain Baiden Eland and Jim Barber with Croz and Browny to receive a two shots handicap for the match.\u00a0 Croz came out of the blocks firing on all cylinders with a great chip in birdie on the first hole and followed that up with another birdie on the 15th (sixth hole played). The BGC boys were cruising at four up after eight holes.\u00a0 Then the Wantima pair decided to play golf. A par won them the ninth, gimme birdie win on 10, another birdie win on 11, birdie halved 12 because BGC got a shot, holed sand shot for birdie on 14 for a win, 40 feet birdie putt for win on the long and difficult 15th, and Wantima were one up with three to play. They held that lead until the 18th when Browny decided to &#8216;step up&#8217; and knock his five wood second shot into the hole for an eagle to halve the match.\u00a0 So, an amazing seven birdies and an eagle for the match, with Croz playing beautiful golf which would have netted him 40 points in a stableford competition.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Next week on Thursday 19th we play at BGC against our nemesis, Gailes, who are leading the competition &#8211;\u00a0 teeing off at noon.\u00a0 The team is: singles &#8211; Ian Burgess, the Peters &#8211; Lansom and Hargreaves and Mark Davis; and 4bbb &#8211; Richard Garnham and Craig James,\u00a0 Andrew Mullis and Geoff Crozier. A win against Gailes will put us on top of the group three ladder and reverse our loss to Gailes at their fortress in the first round. I am quietly confident but well aware that Gailes seem to always find a way to pull something out of the bag.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Cheers<\/div>\n<div>Browny<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Pinkie captain picking his\u00a0eagle ball out of the hole on\u00a018th!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On another perfect winter&#8217;s day with preferred lies in the General Area, our Senior Teams Challenge side had a fantastic 5.5\/0.5 win at Wantima yesterday.
