Play Vale Do Lobo Ocean and you will rarely have a special view ahead of you; it is probably more spectacular than its sister course The Royal. Essentially the front nine is new Ocean and the back part the original layout. Either way you play it is a treat so no wonder we had another good turnout of x14 players again for the competition today.
Special welcome to newcomers Brian Norris and Clive Hill who had been playing a San Lorenzo tournament the week before.
Rain had finally arrived in the Algarve this week much to the delight of the golf courses who have experienced a very dry winter todate. The greens whilst adundant with grass were slow and uneven – not usually a Vale Do Lobo trait. The morning rain subsided to leave us playing once again under blue skies and sunshine.
