Motorized carts were not permitted on the course due to heavy rain that had fallen on Sydney over the previous days making the fairways and walkways very wet under foot.
The greens however were surprisingly firm and did not seem to hold the water. Putting wasn't too difficult at all.
10 hearty individuals did turn up at the course and had a social game of golf as the Captain had called off the MGC club competition due to the fact that there were less than 12 players in attendance prepared to play golf.
Those present were:
Jeff Saunders
Fred Pearce
Grant Thompson
Brian Delica
Danny Yu
Jono Muhs
Steve Buchanan
Mick Connor
Fred El-Daher
Peter Bull
Just as were started to tee off the rain started to fall. It was never heavy but a constant light rain fell and affected play. The wind was light to moderate at times and did not appear to cause too many problems on the course.
The weather forecast from the BOM predicted heavy rain by mid morning so when Peter Bull, Mick Connor and Fred El-Daher finished 9 holes they pulled out. Fred was finding it hard to maintain a grip on his golf club and Peter & Mick were "just not feeling it".
Danny Yu, Jono Muhs and Steve Buchanan appeared to be unphased by the conditions and continued to play the course.
