The Mixed event of Sunday 22 August took the form of a Foursomes Flag Match but unfortunately for the groups playing behind the flags were only a blur on the far horizon as the three eventual prize winners were amongst those first or almost first off.
In what turned out to be a close battle Grant Mitchell and Sue Brown finally emerged as narrow victors with their last shot ending 15 paces from the pin on the 19th a mere 2 paces closer than Grahame Buist and Jude Gould. Not so far behind were previous winners Sue & Joe Mullins who were by the right hand side bunker on the 19th. While a few other pairs did tee off up 19 no one could surpass these early efforts.
Nearest the pin on 18 for two was collected by Tony Park and Vivian Kim but two's were a real rarity with Chris and Helen Richmond the only pair to record a deuce. The day finished with a meal styled "A Taste of Korea" with the food being provided by Charles Lee from the Four Seasons in Bishopdale Courts. Given this was an experiment to be more adventuresome in the after match food it was well received and we will look to do a similar format, but different taste, in the future.
The next Mixed Match is the Islington Cup sponsored by Little India Bistro & Tandoor a Teams Best Ball Nett with a multi tee start from 12.30pm.
