77 players (59 men and 18 ladies) enjoyed the warm but still pleasant conditions at the Cairns Golf Club this morning in playing a 18 Hole Stableford competition sponsored by generous member Rich Michalski. You may not know that Rich and his regular playing partner Keith Hillier were involved in a bingle at Gordonvale several weeks ago, when the buggy they were driving came into collision with a palm tree stump on the 13th fairway. Both players were propelled out of the buggy and came to rest on the fairway. It was thought that the only casualty at the time was Rich's putter, which was snapped in half during his ejection from the buggy. Keith however , did receive some extensive bruising to his chest region and is having a few months off. Get well soon Keith! Under Rule 4.1a(1)/2 Rich was entitled to make strokes with the damaged club for the rest of the round without penalty.
A big thank you to the Cairns Club today for making us feel most welcome and we understand the challenge of scheduling course maintenance and keeping the course playable and open.
