WEEKLY GOLF OUTING ON 30/09/09 AT THE BANGI GOLF RESORT


We had our weekly golf competition for the second time after the Hari Raya holidays on 30/09/09 at the Bangi Golf Resort. There were 6 flights in all. Participants included those we have not seen for ages. All looked keen to resume where we left off about 11/2 m onths ago. At the Coffee House, after the normal exchanges of pleasantry everybody had a peek into the flight details. As there were no clashes prior to this the usual revengeful look was absent, instead, only an anticipatory expectation of new rivalry to be established. Dato Nawi had his wish granted with him partnering Tan Sri Hashim Meon playing against Dato Amin and Aziz Norman. I had the President, Dato Khairuddin and Dul Ngajis as flight partners. In our case, as Dul Ngajis was a handicap 1, we insisted that it be 3 against one and with strokes at all the holes. Dul Ngajis as always accepted with a smiling face. This was the first time our ability based on the recently revised handicaps were pitted against each other. The outcome was yet to be felt after the game. Besides our match against Dul Ngajis, the 3 of us also had on a cutthroat at scratch. Whilst our game against Dul ended with him RM 100 poorer, on our part I had to pay the President and also to Dato K. He had a net 83 and I had a net 77, yet I still pay. Well that’s how a hole by hole game goes. Better luck next time.
We then had lunch with rice, curry ikan tenggiri, sayur bayam and lauk telor. To me kalau telur was prepared as lauk means tak de modal lagi lah tu. Surprisingly curry chicken came later.
Prize giving followed after lunch. Ramli Kinta announced the winners as follows:

Overall Position Net Score Outcome
Abd Razak Overall Champion 68 Potong satu stroke
Dato Yunus Long Runners Up 69 Potong satu stroke
Dato Nawi Alias Third Runners Up 71
A Medal
Dr Khalil Ramli Winner 72
Kol Ramli Kinta Second 73
Mohd Nor Yasin Third 73
B Medal
Dato Malek Sahar Winner 71
Tan Sri Hashim Meon Second 71
Aziz Norman Third 71

Kalau nengok score pada ‘hari pertama’ selepas lama berehat dan juga dengan handicap yang baru, nampaknya semuanya cautious. Terbaik -4 diikuti dengan -3. Yang lain semua -1 atau E dan juga +1. Nampak nampak macam tak ndak menunjuk sangat. Biar lah berpadanan. Saya agak kalau the prize money is good the results would be overwhelmingly better. Kita tengok next outing pula.
Dato Nawi as the Vice President (newly designated) made some announcements pertaining to the SetiakawanGolf Committee. It has been revamped and notable adjustments are:
a. Tan Sri Hashim Meon is now our Patron.
b. Dato Nawi Alias is our Vice President cum Golf Captain

The organizational chart would be put up as soon as I am able to confirm the complete committee.

  1. Dear Skawan Gang,

    It was a pleasure to see 23 other members and Haji Rahim ( on attend C) to turned up just one week after Raya.

    Haji Rahim was around to collect his Air Asia ticket to Chieng Mai on 15 Nov 2009 and paid his RM 4.80 cents "commission" to me for helping him to book and obtain the ticket!
    For a retiree like me, it's quite a hassle to go online to handle airline ticket booking and to receive a small "commission" from a golfing friend...tak cukup! I have to wait for his return to golfing to collect the three-one-one!

    I played to net 71 ( new handicap) and it's a big relief I finally recieved the ball sweep after more than two months of "puteh mata"!!
    My partner, TSHM, played remarkable golf
    ( also net 71) and gave very tough time to Dato Amin And Aziz Norman.

    Salam to all.
