Once again we hosted a wonderful Pharaohs Construction Mixed Classic over the past weekend. There were 122 players enjoying our beautiful golf course in great weather on Saturday and fairly blustery but dry conditions on Sunday.
We had a rather wet Friday when everyone arrived but fortunately things changed for the weekend. Friday evening we had a festive welcoming with our local band, The Southbroom Legends who played music to the tune of Woodstock, the theme of the tournament. Well done Mel Davies, Des Erasmus, Josh Pretorius together with base man Jurgen.
The first day was Greensomes which is always an interesting format with decisions to be made on every hole and the team of Bernie Vorster and Michelle Davis took an early lead with 42 points followed by Bob & Allyson Thomas on a score of 40. The leader board was very tight with lots of teams in contention but all was very friendly. Saturday night dinner dance theme was Woodstock and entertainer Winston Smile put on a great show. It was such fun and really hard to recognize members and friends with their amazing wigs and sixties threads on. Sunday morning dawned fresh and dry with a gentle breeze and a better ball format, which saw scores climb and the tournament came down to the wire.The leading couple of Bernie and Michelle put up a hard fight finishing with a total of 81 points only to be narrowly beaten on a count out by Errol and Trish Amm who made a fine 45 better ball points for their total of 81. The count out favoured the best last day, so the trophy went to long standing Southbroom members Errol and Trish who had travelled up all the way from Cape Town.

What was wonderful were the players who came here from all over the country to enjoy the warm, friendly and enthusiastic Southbroom Golf Club. A truly spirited happy event. Thanks to Main Sponsor, Pharoahs Construction for their continued support and a special thanks to all the other sponsors especially those who manned tees on the course over the weekend and spoilt the players with a wonderful variety of treats and prizes. Jean Corfe enjoyed a Hole in One on the 14th Hole Well done Jean! Jean is a bit of a Legend as this is her 7th Ace
