Event Report:

‘Classic Callaway for Judge

Friday 7th October 2011: It was a fantastic turnout on a breathless overcast day, the perfect scenario for the annual running of the Tulum Sands Callaway Classic, another Thombei the Mist sponsored event. And as usual it was held at Flinders Golf Club on the Mornington Peninsular in Victoria with its magnificent views out over Westernport bay.

Stiff competition: I say fantastic turnout because 18 competitors turned up to contest ‘The Mug’ and what a quality lot they were. For example the first group onto the tee included The Tanunda Kid, Afheed, Teflon and Critey followed in the 2nd group by The Dream, Billy, The Hanging Judge and The Captain. If that isn’t enough to prove the point, the third group contained Nurse Min, Mild Colonial Boy and Pup followed by the fourth with Freddie, The Maroon Breasted Warbler and Shags, and the last group with JB, Slugger, The Bloke and event sponsor Thombei the Mist (see 2011 player groups). With a list of notorious names like that it was clear there would be some stiff competition.

TSCC 11 - Views 1.jpgBreathless conditions: I say breathless because it was, and the waves were all smooth and nicely formed as well. This caused some problems because interstaters like Critey, wanted to take pictures and look at the view. “Just drive over there for a minute would you so I can take a pic” or “I could just sit hear all day and take in that view.” And he wasn’t alone although the pace of the game was good despite the sensational vistas (see – on course in 2011).

Some great performances: Not to disappoint, there were some great performances on the day, which was somewhat surprising after ‘The Long Lunch’ the day before and the night that followed (see snaps of The Long Lunch). Keeping in Mind that Flinders GC is an ACR and PAR 69 stroke, 5277 metre course, four players shot well under card including Slugger who played a sensational 89 off the stick (net 64 strokes), The Tanunda Kid with 88 strokes and lowest off the stick (net 65 strokes), The Bloke with 90 (net 67) and The Hanging Judge (91 – Net 67 strokes).

Judged on Callaway: But of course all that was irrelevant because this was a Callaway event and so the results depended entirely on the player’s Callaway handicap calculated on the day. And that is where the Hanging Judge brought down the hammer gaining a Callaway handicap of 21 strokes (net 70); enough to take out the event convincingly for 2011 (see detailed Callaway results below). The Dream and the Tanunda Kid came in equal 2nd (net 72 strokes) as they did last year, and Slugger, Billy and The Captain came in equal 3rd (net 74 strokes). Minor but significant achievements included Billy, The Maroon Breasted Warbler and Pup taking out the NTPs and Afheed and Pup taking out the longest drives. Hence, it was a riotous presentation back at ‘Chez Thombei’ prior to sensational sumptuous seafood to set off the night (see 2011 TSCC presentations).

The Club committee congratulates The Haning Judge on his memorable performance and all other winners on the day. And of course thanks to event sponsor Tombei the Mist and his staff for another fabulous event.
