The Hill Skinner Cup provides married couples the opportunity to play a round together, with the requirement of only one member, while in the company of others. I am never sure if this activity promotes or enhances marital relations or has a derisory effect, but a reasonably full field exhibited obviously keen to put their skills on show in fourball play.
Raising to the occasion Rod & Rose O'Brien came first, if only by countback, on a score of +7 from Kwan Je Cho & Hwa Ja Cho-Shin. In a head to head match up 3 couples finished simultaneously with a measured +5, uncoupling the tie was another countback so satisfying the final positions going down were Barry & Julie O'Neill, Richard & Anne Peate and Murray & Lorraine Smith.
The "Other Pairings" competition was completed by Duck Kim & Mihee Woo with an equally impressive +7, in light of legal advice the prize for hidden pairings was not awarded. On what was clearly a hard day there was only one two holed and that was entered by Murray Smith. Nearest the hole for two strokes on 18 green for Men was David Youn and for three for Women was Mihee Woo.
The Mixed Season now reaches its climax with Closing Day scheduled for Saturday 27 November 2010. The competition of the day will be a Mixed Foursome Stableford and the event is kindly sponsored by Macquarie Private Wealth represented at the Club by Simon Gilroy. Accordingly enter this date as a must attend before that orgy - of extravagance, Christmas .
