The Bunker Bar v Cafe Kronberg – Matchplay League Game
The Bunker Boys were not their usual bubbly selves when they returned to the bar. 2 halved matches in the last three games has made a big dent in the title challenge but two matches remain and anything can happen in golf.
Cafe Kronberg were the guests at Bangpra and it was the first time we have seen the new club house. Bangpra must be congratulated on a job well done but work still continues on the golf course.
The visitors could only manage a team of 6 players at this time of year and honours were shared 3 matches each.
A break for an hour at the 10th hole could have upset everyone’s concentration and it certainly did PJ Redmond who lost the back nine to Peter Basi after being in the lead at the break. John Hughes was his usual reliable self winning 3 & 1.
William Macey was dormy 4 but pulled out all the stops still to lose to a 10 foot putt (or was it 20 feet) by David Richardson on the last. His playing partner, Mashi Kaneta, made every effort however to show generosity to his opponent by going from 4 up with 8 to play only to win on the last green.
John Macdonald could not overcome the steady play of Monte Sykes but then Gerry Cooney came good again earning the half with a 3 and 1 win over Ebrahim.
Spirits were lifted somewhat back at The Bunker with large helpings of Mick’s Spaghetti Bolognese washed down with generous quantities of Singha!
