Club Championship

by Nber Medici on February 1, 2010

Over a grueling 18 holes, seven players persevered and managed to finish.  Tanner Mills was not able to complete 9 holes on Sunday (she played 9 on Saturday) and withdrew.  In the Scratch Tournament for Club Champion, three players finished with a combined score of 65.  I used Seb’s advice,  ”In my real life experience ties are settled by a count back, i.e., best score on the last hole of the round; and so on until there is a winner” to break the tie.  Getme Somme continues as the club champion.  Well done Getme!  High praise also should go to JuanCruz Zarco for his second place and to Pussy Fanshaw for her third place.  Using the Handicaps, Dillon Speculaas took home the first place win.  I was the witness for these two… they not only play with good grace but are funny to boot.

Holly Kai Points Update !

by Nber Medici on January 27, 2010

The Club Championship is fast approaching. Play at 8 am on Saturday or Sunday. You will play in groups of three and you will need to play BOTH the Ocean and the Shore Course. I will reset all the sims Friday evening so they will be all fresh for you to make a lot of divots in (GRIN) on Saturday. I will reset them again on Saturday night so they will be fresh for Sunday players.

Points Standing as of Jan 27th

Points Standing as of Jan 27th

I have updated the points and all the data is available HERE. A number of people have been playing a LOT of golf. The overall points leader is JuanCruz Zarco who LOVES the Ocean course!

I sometimes get asked for the best scores on the Ocean and Shore Courses and thought I would give you a listing of all the people who have scored 26 or 27 on either of the two courses.  No one has yet been able to beat Getme’s score of 26.

At the stroke of SL midnight last night, the December Points Competition closed.  I was VERY impressed that Dillon Speculaas and Getme Somme spent their New Year’s Eve playing golf at Holly Kai.  It SEEMS from their comments that they played in Tuxes.  Wish I had pictures of these two dapper guys in their tuxes [...]

Handling Ties

December 16, 2009

Seb and I have agreed that a count back is the best way to resolve ties and decide who gets the appropriate Trophy.  The way that this will work is for the two scores for the 9th hole are compared - lowest will be winner; if unresolved the 8th will be compared and so on [...]
