These days seem to start earlier each week but it’s the end of daylight-saving closing in. The golfers have again enjoyed a dry and warm morning for round five of the Eastern Suburbs 55 Senior pennant season.
The competition has several teams vying for the top position. That is in both green and gold groups.
Heritage and Yering Meadows are snapping at the heels of Churchill/Waverley in gold. In the green group Churchill/Waverley hold on by percentage from Eastern and Yering Meadows who both have a game in hand.
There were no tied matches this week and only three squared contests. That is surprising given the close games so far.
The greens were quick, and it was the hosting club (Eastwood) taking advantage of their local knowledge. Their teams had 7 to 1 and 6 ½ to 1 ½ wins. Heritage gold also did well with a 7 to 1 win.
Everyone returned to the clubrooms by 12.30pm and enjoyed lunches of lasagna or schnitzel. Eastwood caterers and bar staff provided excellent service and were applauded by the hungry, thirsty, golfers. During the result presentation everyone was invited to come and play at this very hospitable club.
Practice for the next game at Box Hill. Stay healthy and drive safely.
