Dundee golfers trounce their Glencoe rivals

This past Sunday saw the penultimate round of the 2018 N.KZN Men’s golf league matches being played at Vryheid and Kilbarchan golf clubs.
The Dundee ‘B1’ team of Mandla Mthethwa, Clement Chawanda, Cyril Mkhwanazi and John Zulu proved far too strong for their local rivals Glencoe G.C. by thumping them 10-2 at Kilbarchan.
The ‘A2’ team came up against a strong Vryheid team, and playing on their home course, Vryheid managed to scrape home 7-5 over a determined Dundee team. The other three Dundee league teams all recorded a walkover as Ladysmith C.C. were unable to fulfil their league commitment.

This week’s fixtures; Daves Wednesday 10 hole competition and on Saturday the club competition will be a Combined Stableford format

On Saturday thirty golfers took part in the Men’s Inter-Club fundraiser, and it was the pairing of John Zulu and Hlengiwe Hlongwane who won the better ball competition after beating Marc Bradbury and his partner Billy Francis on a count out after both pairings scored 47 points. Barry Sandy and K.P. Smith finished in third place on 46 points while the father and daughter pairing of Bertie and Nicolette Venter took home the fourth place prize with 43 points. Pierre Booysen (No.4), Clement Chawanda (No.12) and Nicolette Venter on the 16th hole were the only three players to record a 2 Club on the day.
Dave’s Wednesday competition for the summer started last week and will run until the end of October. Winning last week’s competition was Shakeel Kalideen with Jo Khumalo finishing in second place.

Golf Day on Saturday 29th September 2018.
