WAGA in Scottsdale and final scores
WAGA arrived in Scottsdale on Saturday 15th. Weather was perfect and surroundings magnificent. Sunday 16th was registration and informal gathering and the group enjoyed the clear skies and great temperature. Liberal finger food and drinks greeted the group. Today Monday is first day of competition and already some are struggling. It is not a course to miss the fairway given the desert environment and flora and fauna. . WAGA are on The Boulders South course and it is rated in the top 10 public courses in USA. Scores today were fairly high with Robert Carter scoring 37, Ian King & Harry Boardson 36, in the ladies Hazel Kelly had 40, Coral Kennedy 37 and Dilini Saverimuttu 36. Hazel now has a handicap adjustment. NTP was won by Dorothy Consolo.
Tuesday play – Boulders North and South. Harry Boardson and Dilini Saverimuttu were the winners today, 41 and 39 respectively. Both have suffered a handicap adjustment! Robert Carter, Selva Saverimuttu and Dorothy Consolo had 35 each. NTP was won by Ian King from Australia. Wednesday play is again the composite course, 9 holes on The Boulders North and South.
Wednesday results:- The day was clear and warm, not hot, just great for golf. The Boulders South and North were the courses again and play was very consistent. A few rattle snakes provided some disconcerting times but no one suffered, apart from a few who inadvertently bumped against the cactus. Bob Carter and Ian King scored 39 whilst Michael Calvani and Selva Saverimuttu scored 37. Ladies, Dilini Saverimuttu and Cindy Harrison scored 31 with Hazel Kelly and Sheila Clarke scoring 28. Nearest to the Pin was won by Myron Addie.
Overall winner was Harry Boardson with 113, second was Robert Carter with 111 and third was Ian King with 109.
