KRTU GanG - Nov 2013 updates

On Wednesday, 27 Nov; big hitter Mr Lim equaled his best gross of 37, which was previously

achieved on 10th Sep on Tasik Nine. However, this time it was on the Sawit Nine. On the first hole (hole#10), his 3rd approach shot from the light rough about 80m away, saw his ball landed less than a feet from the hole; giving him an easy tap in birdie. Another birdie was achieved on the Par 3 hole #17 from about 8 ft below the flag. All in all, Lim shot 4 more pars and 3 bogeys.

However, on the same nine; our big Bro Dennes also show his color by scoring  a gross 39, with one seemingly impossible birdie from about 30ft away on hole # 15. His approach shot through the green and the ball stopped just short of the back fringe.  It was a difficult putt since the green is slightly downhill and sloping towards the hole. But the ball rolls right in the middle of the cup!

Congratulations to both Lim and Dennes!

So on a day like this, I was thinking that I am going to lose to both of them "pants down!". Indeed, I was. I knew it will be quite an impossible  yet challenging task to make up on the lost ground. But there is a saying -  "when the going gets tough, the tough gets going!".

With true grit, I hit 3 pars in a roll after crossing over to the Tasik Nine. At the end of the 4th hole, I have gained a total of 7 holes from both of them. Whew.....unfortunately we have decided to stop play after the 4th hole becos the 2 guys in front were just dragging their feet. We had to wait for them to clear the green starting from the first hole. They are without doubt the kampong golfers!

2 days later, Lim shot a gross 39!  Without doubt, he has won the "Most Improved Player" Award for 2013, ending the year with a big bang!!!
