Nurse Min 8th March 2021 Yarrambat Park |
Standardised Event Report: ‘Major winner no minnow’ |
|
March 8th
2021: Well,
it was not was another Yarrambat kind of day in terms of the weather (rain)
but the course was in reasonably good condition, and the greens in fairly
good condition. But, it was a perfect scenario for
the 2nd major nnomads Golf Club event
for 2021. |
|
It was a full
house this year as 12 competitors stepped up to compete in the first
Triggered Major of 2021, creating only what could be described as a [insert preferred adjective] field. Preferred adjective alternatives – 1) Impressive, 2) Top class, 3)
Sensational, 4) Magnificent and 5) Awe-inspiring: First onto the
tee in Group 1 were Slugger, Thombei the Mist,
Markus Octavious and Pup closely
followed by Nurse Min, The Cardinal,
The Hanging Judge and Freddie Five
Iron in the 2nd group and The
Bloke, TJ, Billy Bob Thornton and Stavros the Greek in the final group.
With such an elite field like this, it was clearly going to be a [insert preferred adjective] competition
(see TM1 2021 Player Groups). |
|
Quality on course: And that is exactly how it turned out with a truly a [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] display of how to play competition golf. Perfect examples of
such expertise included The Hanging
Judge’s [Rotate from list of preferred
adjectives] Longest drive on the 15th, Pup’s [Rotate from
list of preferred adjectives] Longest drive on the 9th,
The Bloke’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 12th, The Cardinal’s [Rotate from list of preferred
headlines] NTP on the 8th and Thombei’s [Rotate from list of preferred headlines] NTP on the 16th. It is fair to say that the adoring
gallery got their money’s worth that day (see On Course in 2021). |
|
Major winner no minnow: At the end of the day it was a clear
result with Nurse Min (97,28,69)
one over the card, and three strokes in front of 2nd place getter The Cardinal (96,24,72) with Freddie Five Iron (112,36,76) a
further 4 strokes behind in 3rd place, although Markus Octavious was awarded 3rd place by mistake (see detailed results below). In
summary, the Nurse Min did it again easily in anybody’s language. Celebrations and
presentations: Hence, the presentations under
a tree in the rain at the back of the car park were a [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] celebration of Nurse
Min’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] performance as it should have been (see Photos of 2021
presentations). Note: The reigning champion declined to give
a speech saying his last speech was as good as we were going to get. |
|
The Club
committee congratulates Nurse Min on
his [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] win and indeed all other winners on the day. The committee
also reminds members that the next major event in 2020 is the ‘Blessed are the Big Nose’ Cup, to be
run on Good Friday. So, book early and
see you there. |
