Match Report
Captain v Vice Captain, 30/8/2005
The Captain versus Vice Captain match was played in glorious conditions at
Thorpeness later than usual due to me not rearranging the match earlier in the
year!
We were lucky to play Thorpeness on a late summer evening where lots of shorts
were in evidence (nice legs Jon) and everyone enjoyed the course being in its
usual good conditions.
The result of the match was NOT fixed by me choosing the teams as some people
believed, Jon had every opportunity to choose players or pairings that he wanted
to and it was just unfortunate for him that my team all played better on the
day!
I was very lucky to play with Ivan who was following on his good form from
the previous day and helped me beat Jon and Tony, I was just glad Jon and I
didn't play a singles match against each other as I think we would have been
giving holes to each other on a regular basis
Results for the day were as follows:
Fourball Better Ball Hambro Scoring
| Captains team (Jon
Hopkins) |
Vice Captains team (Stuart Wyse) |
