Trophy Presentation

The tee booking system was kinder this round with just 30 minutes between groups.

DavidM has returned to top form and led the way with 7 skins by winning 3 holes and topped our stableford scores with 36 points.

The Steves also displayed great skill with spectacular birdies.

The Nth Turramurra competition was single stableford with 114 players and Medley 2B multiplier with 134 players. The 30cm rake and place local rule was in place for the bunkers.

The A grade winner scored 43 points, B grade 42 points and the C grade winner scored 37. The top medley 2B multiplier score was 92 points.

Round 4: A trophy presentation at last

1st March:
[Trophy Presentation]
Trophy Presentation

For the first time in 2025 we had both groups out with close tee times. Unfortunately those tee times were late morning and the day turned out to be hot.

Mark's experience at playing the late tee times might have helped as he put together a very tidy even par round and won the skins on 4 holes. SteveH also had a good round, finishing two over and won one hole which netted him a bag of 7 skins and the win for the day.

The Nth Turramurra competition was Par format with 129 players in the men's comp. The course condition is now so good that the 30cm Preferred Lies local rule is no longer in effect.

The A grade winner scored +5 and the B grade winner scored +6.

Individual Par Scores (par 68)
[Name (hcap) Nett Skins]:
Birdies:

5th (par 3): Mark.
15th (par 3): SteveH.

Longest drive (13th hole):

DavidM with a tee shot of 235m.

Nearest to the pin (15th):

SteveB with a tee shot to 11.5 SBS.

Interesting Shots:

- SteveH chipped in from off the green on 15 to make a birdie and secure 7 skins.

Conditions:

The weather was hot and humid with very little breeze. There was also some smoke from controlled burns drifting across the course. All players exhausted by the end of the round and hoping for proper Autumn weather next round.

Rules of the Round:

None



Round 3: Craig Conquers the Royal

15th February:
[Trophy Presentation]
Trophy Presentation

The groups were separated by a few hours again this week so there was no post round skins presentation possible. Fortunately, Craig did the calculation at home and announced the results via WhatsApp.

Craig had a solid front 9 with a couple of bad holes but finished with a great back 9 to make the our top nett score of +2.

The skins result followed with Craig taking 7 ahead of Sujay and SteveH with 4 each.

The Nth Turramurra competition was the Summer cup with 114 players in the men's comp. The 30cm Preferred Lies local rule was in place for fairways and the bunkers were GUR.

The Nett winner scored -8 off a handicap of 29. Runner-up was -6 off a handicap of 20. The scratch winner scored -1 off a handicap of 0.

The New Rules of Golf - Effective 1st January 2023

You can find a new rules "infographic" from the R&A and USGA in this PDF file.

The main changes are:

Simplified Back-on-the-Line Relief.

This relief procedure, often used for penalty area and unplayable ball relief, has been simplified so the ball is now dropped on the line, and may roll up to one club-length in any direction without a re-drop being required. This change simplifies what had become a complex procedure that was regularly breached by golfers without them realising they had done so. It represents a return to the essence of the easy-to-apply, pre-2019 process, which was almost entirely free of inaccurate application by golfers at any level of the game.

Handicap on Scorecard.

Golfers will no longer incur a penalty under the Rules of Golf for accidentally recording an incorrect Daily Handicap on their scorecard. This is because the inclusion of the handicap in the official submission of a player’s score will become a responsibility of the Committee. This change is consistent with other penalty reductions, such as reducing the penalty down to only one stroke for playing an incorrectly substituted ball. (Note: In the same way that players are obliged to calculate Stableford points and to include score totals on their scorecard despite the Rules not requiring it, they will also be obliged to record their Daily Handicap when doing so will be helpful to administrators. GA will support any committee that encounters a problem in achieving assistance from golfers with this fundamental obligation.)

Replacing Damaged Clubs.

If your club is damaged during a round (except in cases of abuse) you may replace it, repair it, or continue to use it.
