Strathalbyn Ladies Golf
Championship finalists decided.
On Wednesday 9th September, the Ladies Championship Semifinals were played.
In ‘A’ Grade, Mandi Vardon played Jo Pickhaver and won 4/2 and Mel Johnson played Di Krutli and Mel won with the same score, 4/2. Congratulations to Mandi and Mel for the final in couple of weeks’ time.
In ‘B’ Grade, Cara Eastwood played Pauline Walkom and Cara won 9/7. Ann Semple played Jayne Dunn and won 6/4. Well done to Cara and Ann and all the best for your final on 20th September.
There were only 4 ladies who played the Stableford round. Tonya Merritt won with 31 points. Not far behind was Carol Pelle with 30. Kerrie Edwards finished with 24 points and Shelley Handke scored 14 points.
NTP winner with her second shot on the 17th was Kerrie. Tonya had a gobbler on the 7th and Mandi had one on the 12th hole.
Stories from the day include that Mandi found the Hobbit Hollow on the 14th hole with an uncharacteristic shot from her. It gave Jo another hole to play. The trees were Cara’s friend to start with, but on the 9th, she hit a twiggy branch out of the rough that sent her ball in another direction away from the green!! Jayne found the dam on the 7th but couldn’t find her ball. She also found the dam on the 16th but was a little lucky. She found her first ball, but not the second. Kerrie hit a galah, but it was ok. For those following the duckling story, there are still 16 and they are very mobile, walking from the 6th hole all the way to the 1st hole. Quite a trek for little duckling legs.
The ladies celebrated Kerrie’s birthday with delicious raspberry muffins made by Jayne.

Strathalbyn Ladies Golf
Nikki Alves wins with 70
Two competitions were held on Wednesday 2nd September with Nikki Alves winning the Stroke comp with a wonderful 70 nett. Not too far behind was Ann Semple with a very credible 71. Claire Methven followed with 79, Jayne Dunn 82, Mandi Vardon and Pauline Walkom 83, Shelley Handke 84, Mel Johnson 85 and Cara Eastwood finished with 90. Only 10 ladies were out to play the Stroke round with a few ladies absent with appointments or other activities.
The second competition on the day was one of the quarter finals of the ‘A’ Grade Championships. Jo Pickhaver and Jenny Drury played in a tight tussle that took them to the 19th hole which Jo won giving her the win 1 up. It was a great game with each one leading at various stages through the game. The other finals will be played before next week if needed. Some players have byes into the next round.
NTP winner was Ann Semple with a great drive on the 9th hole. Nikki had a birdie/gobbler on the 16thhole, Shelley had a birdie on the 9th hole and Jenny had a gobbler on the 15th hole.
Kangaroos watched the ladies at the 5th/14th green by lazing under the trees in the shelter they provided. There are still 16 growing ducklings around the same green. Mum and Dad are very protective.
Cara found the big gum on the 7th hole but luckily the hit was to the left rather than into the dam. A magpie swooped Nikki on the 8th, Cara helped fend it away but then saw a wattle bird line up the magpie. Cara and Jo both found the ditch on the 12th but were able to hit out. Golf can be interesting with a few obstacles on the way round!!
Ladies from the club are representing Strathalbyn at a variety of Open Days in the district. Friday, 29th August, Cara, Ann and Mel went to Oakbank where Cara won the longest drive and Mel won a lucky door prize. Ann played with the Oakbank Captain, Juliette and had a 12 on one par 3.
Friday,4th September, Nikki, Eileen Alves, Mel, Ann, Dawne Thomas and former member Charmaine Aplin played at Murray Bridge. It was wet, cold and windy and the golf proved ordinary. The company, however, was great and helped make the day. Eileen and Mel both won raffle prizes. At both Open days, the ladies enjoyed a very delicious lunch which took away the disappointment of the golf with lots of yummy calories to get them back to Strath. Late mail told me that Nikki had a problem with disappearing balls. One went down a drain outlet, several got drowned with the count at 6 lost by the end of the round!!
