Standardised Event Report: ‘TJ Triumphs in the Trenches Again! |
|
April 25th 2024 - Lest we forget: So, this year’s running of the ANZAC Day medal was
run at the Yarrambat Park where the conditions were not great but ok and the
course in fairly good condition. |
|
Nine club
members turned out to remember, representing a solid cross section 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 or 5) Awe-inspiring: First onto the
tee in Group 1 were Billy Bob Thornton,
Slugger Fairweather, and TJ, closely followed by Group 2 including Circuit
Board, Freddie Five Iron and Markus Octavious, and finally Group 3
with Stavros the Greek, The Bloke and Nurse Min. With
such a highly skilled field like this, it was clearly going to be a [insert preferred adjective] competition
(see 2024 Player Groups). |
|
Tough battle in the
trenches: 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 included The Bloke’s
[Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTPs on the 5th, Billy Bob Thornton’s [Rotate from list
of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 8th,
Stavros the Greek’s Rotate from list of preferred
adjectives] NTP on the 12th, and finally TJ’s
[Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] NTP on the 16th, and his two [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] longest drives on the 9th and 15th
holes. It is fair to say that the adoring gallery got their money’s worth
that day (see coverage of On Course at the ADM in 2024). |
|
TJ Triumphs in the
trenches: But
at the end of the day, TJ (96,21,75) did it again, winning
for the 2nd year in a row, beating Stavros the Greek
(94,18,76) and The Bloke (90,14,76) in equal second place by a single
stroke. Remembered at the
presentations: This meant the presentations
were once again a celebration of TJ’s [Rotate from list of preferred adjectives] performance during which last year’s champion TJ
presented himself with the ADM pin and ADM trophy in front of an adoring
gallery and player group. “This is the
best bit about winning…. ” started out TJ in his acceptance speech (see 2024 ADM champion’s presentation
and winners speech). |
|
The Club
committee congratulates TJ 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 2024 is the Victorian Open
Masters Invitational Tournament (VOMIT) to be run on the long weekend in
June. So, book early and see you
there. |
