6th May 2017 - The Ridge Golf Course - Singles Matchplay - Final Round - 6:34am

What a PERFECT DAY for golf!

We had 35 starters and the fairways of the course were in pristine condition BUT.

We are becoming accustomed to having to rake the bunkers to remove the copious numbers of holes from foot prints each and every time that we enter them.

BUT we were surprised that many of the greens were badly damaged from people who do not repair their divots.

For $45 per person for a round of golf we think that the green keepers need to do a better job of looking after the course.

The Guzzlers Cup Winner was Joe Taylor.

1st Place:     Joe Taylor (42) on a count back from Mark Allan

3rd Place:    Danny Yu (41) on a count back from Adam El-Daher
