Report Round 1 Wednesday 25th April (Grand Ducal)
The FROGS 2012 season got off to a wet, rainy start at GD but the turnout was excellent with 36 players braving the conditions.
The winner on the night with an impressive 17 points was Woodge beating the newcomer David Walker on a countback. Third place went to Merve the Swerve with 16.
While some players had obviously not left their clubs sitting quietly in the corner of the garage, others still have to get that swing back into shape: the happy winner of the worst score was Neil Underwood, although he was pushed hard by some other members, who will remain unnamed!
Longest drive went to Del Boy with an impressive shot down to one of the new bunkers on the first, while Franco Mastroddi hit true and sweet to take nearest to the pin.
The SHRM also got underway with two results: Merve the Swerve beat local boy, Frank Maitry, 2 & 1 and Steve Brown overcame Rob McCorduck with the same result.
Best (and only) guest was Don MacGregor.
The evening was capped off with a fine meal, organised by Luc De Vet, and the handing out of the 2012 FROG shirts.
Thanks go to our sponsors and starters, Kieron O’ Connor & Richard Neale.
Don’t forget the date of the next outing: Wednesday 9th May, Canach front nine, with Merve the Swerve acting as your host on the 1st tee.
