Twos one

Before this article reaches its usual pitched tempo, a word about the title might be in order. The scribe couldn’t think of one. And with the readership ratings down I tried to throw out an eye catcher. Apologies for this callous show of commercialism!

So anyway, it is a well established fact that there are as many paddies’ (Irishmen) in Pattaya as there are Lek’s and Noi’s on the poles of the local Go Go’s. That overabundance was evident in this days performance as man of the match Co Cork’s captain Cotter’s 38 pts saw him top the podium with a narrow count back victory over Gareth ‘Ralphy’ Gill.

Chris Davisson, who this scribe finds himself writing about on a regular basis, also got the decision on a count back in the junior flight over the Shropshire ‘Bell’ Kathy Doody as both were locked on 35 point hauls.

Co Dublin’s Peter ‘Don Corleone’ Henshaw slotted the days only two in as many games.

Tuesday 6^th July St Andrews A Flight

1^st Peter Hynard (13) 37 pts

2^nd Seamus Cotter (12) 36 pts

B Flight

1^st Peter Hendenberg (19) 37pts

2^nd Bill Brochart (16) 35 pts

As so often happens when a player does well on a Sunday the “purple patch” will continue thru Tuesday. Such was the case of Seamus the captain his even par round at the tough St Andrews, was good for second slot in the Senior Flight. Peter ‘The Right Honorable’ Hynard fashioned an excellent 37 points for Co man of the match and the senior top finish.

Peter Hendenberg posted the same 37 points to take the junior Flight two shots clear of

the man on form Mike Jefferies and Bill Brochart, Mike edging Bill in the resulting count back.

The donkey and Gordon Cadle split the twos pot.

Wednesday 7^th July Treasure Hill

A Flight

1^st Bill Brochart (17) 37 pts

2^nd John Haddon (26) 35pts

Hey where’s the title boy today? Well before the field could get to smug about keeping Mr. Cotter of the podium, it was pointed out that he had to take a rest to let his golf shafts cool down. So that left Bill Brochart an opportunity to vault to the top of the podium, so making up for yesterdays disappointing second place. John Haddon filled the flight two shots adrift.

No twos were recorded so it’s a rollover Friday. 

Friday 9^th Crystal Bay

A Flight

1^st Benn Nelson (14) 41 pts

2^nd Seamus Cotter (12) 36 pts

It is a well-Known Rule amongst those who are resident in Pattaya that we have to get our friends, whether they are coming for a long holiday or returning from work early. Get to them before they acclimatize to the Pattaya night life, in the case of the visitor, or before they get the rust out of their swing, in the case of the working lad. Benn ‘The Admiral’ Nelson it did not go according to form as he opened his Pattaya stay with a brilliant 41 point haul for A Flight victory. Seamus ‘The Captain’ Cotter kept his rich vein of form intact carding an even par round.

No twos recorded Double rollover Monday.
