31 players teed off on a cold wet and windy morning.
The conditions were pretty awful leaving the Captain no option but to call the game off after 9 holes.
The final round of the Club Championships will be rescheduled when time permits as Round 1 of the Singles Matchplay starts next week at Woolooware.
25 players teed off on a wet morning that threatened to cause the game to be cancelled but not so.

34 players teed off on a very cold morning that had clear skies at 7am with a strong breeze behind us on the first tee but became overcast by 9am. Luckily there was no rain.
The greens were is good condition although a bit slow.
The fairways and rough were well mowed and dry underfoot. The course was in really good condition despite less than a dozen smallish spots that were still a bit soggy. There were no areas where water had pooled.
The dams were full and the creeks were running freely creating a background of pleasant sounds against which to play golf.
Bunkers were 'in play' and it was 6" preferred lie on fairways only.

14 players chose to test the conditions at the Auburn Golf Course which in previous outings has been very wet underfoot with many balls plugged in the middle of the fairway and motorized carts not allowed on the course.
Well not this week! Although the sky was cloudy there was no rain during the game.
The course was still wet and a bit soft underfoot in areas. The fairways were very patchy due to recent rain. The course is still recovering from recent torrential rain and there was no run on the fairways. The greens were very slow due to the moisture
