Golf 'Champs'

Recently Gympie Womens Golf Club held their championship over 72 holes.  We played in perfect weather and course conditions so there were no excuses for poor performances! (only oneself).

Jean Peters, Dorothy Bramley, Dell Groundwater, Virginia Reid, Lorraine Elliot  and Joy Hatton - absent Cindy Lawson and Di Bengthamy

Those in the picture fared better than the other competitors - we were winners in our own little ways.  The lady in the middle, Dell, is probably the only real golfer with a mighty swing and finesse around the green and she was the overall champion.  She is an amazing athlete for 77 years of age and who was on her deathbed 2 years ago and she has recovered to her best form.

In case you think we are a mob of old cronies who play golf, the two people missing from the picture were in their thirties so there are some youngsters among us.  Incidentally I am not pretending that I possess golf skills, I merely outlasted the others on the course, fortunately my fitness probably saved me.  Also most hackers know that on the day if they are hitting them right then that is just the luck of golf.
