Stavros the Greek 7th April 2023 Yarrambat Park |
Standardised Event Report: ‘Stavros has a big nose’ |
|
April 8th 2023: Well,
this year’s running of the Blessed are
the Big Nose Cup on Good Friday was another raging success for those who
were gutsy enough to turn up to celebrate the origins of the event (see Life
of Brian – Blessed are
the Big Nose scene video as a reminder). |
|
The weather was originally predicted to be terrible which prompted a
few wimps to pull out of the event (no names, no pack drill). But that is not
how it turned out, and a great day was had by some of
the cream of the nnomads Golf Club membership base,
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 Curtis, Pup, TJ, and Thombei
the Mist, while Group 2 included The Bloke, Stavros
the Greek, Markus Octavious
and The Hanging Judge. With such a highly skilled field, it was clearly
going to be a [insert preferred adjective] competition (see 2023 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 8th hole, Pup’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 5th hole, and his [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] longest drive on the 9th hole, Curtis’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 16th hole, and his [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] longest drive on the 15th hole. It is fair to say
that the adoring gallery got their money’s this year (see On Course in 2023). |
|
Stavros has a big nose: At the end of this year’s Good Friday competition, Stavros the Greek (92,19,73) played stunningly
well, shooting 1 stroke over the card, beating 2nd place getter TJ (96,21,75), by two strokes, with Markus
Octavious (114,35, 79) a few strokes behind in
3rd. Of note was the fact that this was the second major event win in a row
for Stavros after winning the first Triggered Major for the year back
in March 2023. Stavros focused presentations: So, as you would expect, the presentations in the car park
were clearly a celebration of The Greek’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] performance. “It was a privilege to win” started out
this year’s champion as the trophy was presented in front of the adoring
gallery (see the BBNC 2023 presentation photos). |
|
The Club committee congratulates Stavros and indeed all other winners on the day. The committee
also reminds members that the next major event in 2023 is the ‘ANZAC Day’ medal, to be run at the
Growling Frog on ANZAC day. So, book
early and see you there. |
