October 2016 Game at Tropicana Golf & Country Resort

Tropicana Golf & Country Resort was the venue for the October monthly game with 24 players registered for the day. The course was in great shape as always and the undulating, fast greens with multiple bunkers around most of the greens provided a testing challenge for all.

We played the East 1 and East 2 nines and after a prompt start at 1pm we were almost immediately stopped by the siren for rain/lightning. After about a 20 minute delay play resumed.

A notable mention should be made for Franz Hierz who probably chose the most dangerous place to wait out this delay …. directly next to 5 large metal conducting flag poles (should have been a COTD nomination)

We must say a big thank you to Mahmud Mohamed (member at Tropicana) who helped us arrange and book the game.

Post game dinner and prize giving was held at Pantai Seafood Restaurant which is very close to the club.
