Mt Compass February 2024 – Tony van Wyk Wins the Count-back !

24 players joined us on this challenging links-style course for our second round of the year. With nobody playing to or above their handicaps, the winning position was contested by 4 players on 35 points. So the usual count-back rules were applied to determine that Tony van Wyk was the final winner, based on his finishing form on the day !

Several boxes of golf balls were lost in the thick rough by our players.

The course was in very good shape, with the greens testing most players’ putting skills, and the food & service in the restaurant afterwards was excellent, as always.

Thanks to those who stayed for the AGM (which was completed in under 6 minutes so not a big ask – and that included an interruption from a large spider crawling across one of the lunch tables !) and prize-giving.

1st = Tony van Wyk with 35 points;

2nd (on count-back) = Jai Brown with 35 points;

3rd (on count-back) = Leon Mulder with 35 points.

The next 6 place-getters also received a ball each – down to 29 points !
