The sixth Southbroom Mixed classic has come and gone. 100 players from Southbroom, all over South Africa, and even from the UK played the tournament. The golf over the two days was competitive and very close, a number of teams could have won. The first day saw our Club Chairman and Lady President (John Fox & Irene Schanda) hold a narrow lead over the youngsters of the tournament, Callum Piccione & Laura Cole, with another 3 teams a further point behind.
John & Irene weren’t able to replicate their Saturday round in what became a fresh South Wester blowing through Southbroom. Paul Lawson & Augi D’ewes were consistent, finishing Third on Saturday, Third on Sunday and Third Overall in the Tournament one point behind the eventual winners. Bob O’Callaghan and Jill Webster matched Paul & Augi’s scores, seeing their back 9 on the last day enough to pip them to second spot. Winning by a single shot in the end was Dave & Solange Fox, 40 points on Saturday saw them in the hunt 3 behind, but a brilliant 45 points on Sunday saw them do just enough to clinch the tournament for the first time.
Dave & Solange’s sons, Greg & Andrew Fox won the Men’s Amateur Classic this year too so this caps off a successful year in the Fox household!
Both evening’s entertainment were fantastic. Southbroom Legends band Richard Bridgeford, Des Erasmus and Deon de Beer entertained all on Friday with great catchy music and DJ Tim got everybody dancing on Saturday night. The food was voted absolutely delicious, there was plenty of laughter, fun, great outfits!
