THE Gloucester Golf Ladies played the penultimate round of their 12 hole Summer Competition last Wednesday, 11 February, starting their round with a mist hugging the course – a mist so thick that the players’ drives were hit out of sight!
The dams were full after the recent rain, the rough was thick enough to hide the balls that strayed from the fairway and the bright pink of crepe myrtles in bloom delighted all.
A magic day and another magic round for Myrelle Fraser, who won the event with a solid score of 27 points.
Balls went to Rhonda Nightingale 25, and Cheryl Goodrich, 24. Margaret Dunn also picked up a ball on a count back with a score of 23 points on her first game back in a while.
Carolyn Davies took out the prize for Nearest-to-the-Pin the pin at the 4th and 13th holes, with Karen Howarth following suit at the 6th hole.
The final round of the Gloucester Golf Ladies Summer Competition will be played on 17 February and the season proper begins the following week with their Beginners Day.
