Alamos Golf Course : Chez Carlos Golf Society Competion
17 players tee’d off on another sunny but chilly Algarve day.
Alamos golf course was in pretty good condition with the greens running true and this was reflected in the scores.
Scores were as low as 24 and as high as 41 and the four players who struggled to make the 30 points mark were rewarded with an extra shot on their handicaps, these were Jeff Williams, Colette Bourke, Tony McInerney and Chris Milford.
At the top end Alan Wesson had another amazing golf round shooting 3 under on the back 9 with 3 birdies and 6 pars – well done Alan who has racked up 3 wins in a row and will now be playing off 5.
Eve Koch and Will Cogan also produced stunning golf rounds of 39 points with Eve producing a fantastic birdie on the 12th with a 40 metre bunker shot to 1 metre.
Will came second after a count back and will be playing off 10 whilst Eve has been granted her wish and will be playing off 16.7 in future.
David Bowles started the day with 4 pars and his tee shot on the Par 3 – 3rd to 4 feet gave him closest to the pin.
Peter Verschoor hit a cracker on the 16th to get inside Alan Wesson and enjoy his bottle of wine.
On the 12th hole Deirdre Kearney showed her husband Jim what she can do with a great drive to secure the longest drive – the second lady to win the longest drive in two weeks!! – come on guys – whats that that all about?
Results:
1st – Alan Wesson 41
2nd – Will Cogan 39
3rd – Eve Koch 39
Closet to the pin on Hole 3 – David Bowles and Peter Verschoor and on the 16th
Longest drive on the 12th – Deirdre Kearney
