The Bloke 15th April 2022 Yarra Bend |
Standardised Event Report: ‘Bloke plays well on a Friday’ |
|
April 15th 2022: So,
the annual running of the Blessed are the Big Nose Cup on Good Friday was a raging
success, this year run at Yarra Bend on a very pleasant autumn day, in near
perfect conditions. |
|
As expected, a
solid cross section from the cream of the nnomads
Golf Club membership base turned out to compete, 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: This year’s Group 1 contained The Cardinal, Slugger, and Cinders, while
Group 2 contained The Bloke, Stavros the Greek and The
Hanging Judge. With such a highly skilled field, it was clearly going to
be a [insert preferred adjective] competition
(see 2022 Player Groups). |
|
Pure quality on course: And that is exactly how it turned out with a truly [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] display of how to play competition golf. Standout
performances included The Bloke’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 1st hole, his [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] longest drive on the 6th hole, and his [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] longest drive on the 15th hole. Other highlights
included Slugger’s [Rotate from list of preferred
adjectives] NTP on the 13th hole and the Cardinal’s
[Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 7th hole. It is fair to say that the
adoring gallery got their money’s this year (see On Course in 2022). |

Bloke plays well on a Friday:
At the end of that Good Friday competition, The Bloke (88,17,71) again played well,
shooting 1 stroke under the card, beating 2nd place getter Stavros the Greek (95,23,72), by one stroke,
with The Cardinal (103,24,79) a few strokes behind. Combined with his
two longest drives, one NTP and best off the stick, The Bloke clearly outperformed
the rest of the field in the first major of the year. Of note was the fact that
the Bloke replicated last year’s performance, getting the same score, two
longest drives as he did last year, one NTP as he did last year and best off
the stick as he did last year. Bloke focused presentations: So, as
you would expect, the presentations in the car park were clearly a
celebration of The Bloke’s [Rotate from list
of preferred adjectives] performance. “It was a
fabulous day for golf and I hope everyone enjoyed it” started out this
year’s champion as the trophy was presented in front of the adoring gallery
(see the BBNC 2022 presentation photos). |
|
The Club committee congratulates The Bloke and indeed all other winners on the day. The committee
also reminds members that the next major event in 2022 is the ‘ANZAC Day’ medal, to be run at the
Growling Frog on ANZAC day. So, book
early and see you there. |
