Crystal Bay
Crystal Bay
Crystal Bay
Playing stroke play at Crystal Bay there was some cracking scores to win in both flights.
The cut was set at handicap 16 and young golfer Pat Kelly had a marvelous three under pat round to win the A Flight. Playing off a handicap of 2 that’s a pretty good round by anybody’s standard!
Dougy Crowe was one shot behind to take second place and Peter Blackburn came in third with a level par round.
Continuing with his prolonged spell of fine form P.J. won the B Flight by the same three under par score to leave the rest of the field trailing miles behind. Gene Pleuger was second six shots back and Steve Durey took third place a further four shot back.
With the Matchplay season just about to start the Bunker Boy’s are hoping P.J. can keep up this form to help us retain the trophy we won last season!

Hi Mick,
I have really enjoyed playing with you, despite embarising Kevin,
by winning twice (out of 3) where I haven’t been first by Tropical
Bert and Kronborg, though playing there more often…..
Before I left Pattaya I came over to say goodbye to you, just to
learn that you wouldn’t be in until early in the evening), too late
for me)
Any way, wish you a lot of success and hope to see you again end of
the year.
Take care,
Cees
