The Society visited the West Algarve this week. We were scheduled to play Morgado but because of the recent rains play was switched to Alamos on the advice of the golf reception – a decision that was justified by the time we had finished.
Whilst the course was very wet in places overall it was a drier place to be than Morgado. Total of nine players today resulted in us going out in three groups of 3. Thankfully the rain kept away with near ideal conditions to play. Special mention must go to the conditions of the greens – excellent considering the amount of rainfall they had received and very quick at times!
A warm welcome was made to newcomer Chris Milford (handicap 12) joining us for the first time. ”This was my first time at Alamos. I didn’t expect it to be this good!”
Good day had by all once again and lucky with the weather.
