Tuesday October 5th – Cup Day Ambrose

After a few hot and windy days the course was very appreciative of the ~40mm of rain that fell over the weekend.  The Cup Day Ambrose field was surprisingly large, perhaps, after Saturday’s washout, a few frustrated golfers just had to get back on the course.  Play proceeded at “Ambrose Speed”  and all groups enjoyed the mild, sunny afternoon.   A few greens had casual water, either at the front or back, which stopped approach shots dead.  The greens were a little furry forcing golfers to “putt with conviction” or end up well short of the cup.  On a beautiful, late spring afternoon the results were;

Winners; John Freestone/Andrew Laing/John Laing –  74/11/63 from Sherif Abdel-Sayed/Mitch Atlas –  79/11/68
