President's Grade Report..............

From President's manager Dennis Doherty a report on Sundays match:

On paper a strong Christchurch fronted to play Waitikiri on another cold & squally morning.

Waitikiri also produced a very strong team as it proved with several of their players shooting personal bests. Most of the matches went to the 17th - a series of tight matches all played in good competitive spirit followed by convivial post match analysis of recoveries ( mostly by Waitikiri) & a very pleasant lunch. End result was a 6.5 to 1.5 loss - it did seem a lot closer than that!!!

Very good fight back by Tony McKeogh from being 2 down and unlucky not to win his match on the 18th - just missing a medium to long putt on recently cored greens & his opponent sinking a testing putt to obtain a half. Yours truly started well, lost his way in the middle & somehow managed to scrape home with a win with more than a little help from his opponent ( sometimes you strike lucky).

Our next match is a home game - 1pm tee off on 1 November against Russley - and this will be our last round at Shirley prior to the greens and fairways renovations.
