Turkey and trimmings were on hold as an ensemble of x8 players eager to make the best of the fine weather gathered at Oceanico Pinhal for the Society’s Christmas Day Competition.
All other Oceanico courses were closed as part of the ongoing winter maintenance programme so it was also an opportunity to find out if the rumours about the poor condition of Pinhal were true. I am pleased to report they were not. Greens were fine though rather slow to what we have been use to recently. New buggy paths have been laid down as well as an extensive prunning of the pines trees thus allowing more light onto the course. All in all it was good condition for winter.
Tommy Jensen continues his fine run of form with 35pts (15/20)- very credible on this tough scoring course. All others were sub 30pts!
1st: Tommy Jensen (h/c16): 35pts
2nd: Chris Milford (h/c13): 29pts
Nearest The Pin (5th) – Tommy Jensen
Nearest The Pin (14th) – Jet Milford
