After a wonderful week of sunshine the New Year tournament was marred by heavy rain in the morning which meant that an excellent field of 130+ was reduced to 90. Start time was delayed by 30 minutes and the rain ceased after a couple of holes with the rest of the round played in excellent conditions. Many of the top prizes went to visitors, including our customary Korean guests.

 

Thanks to the Golfer Pacific magazine which sponsored the event.
