Today At The Golf Pitch...

We played all 18 holes! Although Neal did receive one warning from the umpire for 'raquet abuse' at the 16th tee... after slicing his tee shot about 80 yds right, back onto the 15th tee, he then hurled his driver up the field... unfortunately he pulled it a bit and missed the fairway on the left!


Neal actually got away to the better start, winning the first two holes with a par and a birdie... but a couple of sevens spoiled the front nine for him. At the half way point it was honours even at 47 strokes each. Neither of us played the back nine particularly well, although I should add that following the incident reported above, Neal went on to hit the 16th green with his second shot and then make two putts for a par.

No real highlights in my round, just steady scoring... with the exception of an 11 at the 13th, playing 5 off the tee after pulling the first two drives out of bounds. In the end I shot a total of 99, beating Neal by 2 or 3 strokes.
