Day 74 - Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

Alas there was displeasing news to start the day with Michelle not feeling well - was it a rogue prawn from the night before perhaps? The jury of her mind was out on the matter, but she did need to leave the Northern Trust premises early to recuperate.

Joy of joys, Tuesday Night Gold Club was upon us again, brought forward by a week due to next Tuesday not suiting many athletes. The course played this time was Oakmont Country Club, featuring ultra-thin fairways and much wood. Richie Richmeister Rich did us a favour by halving the normal lead-time of each of his shots and it turns out that this did himself a favour also, improving his game all-round and resulting in his first TNGC title. I played decently and retuned 34 points for a nother middle-of-the road placing of 4th out of 7, but feel that a breakthrough to a lower handicap is imminent. Alas, the time-honoured tradition of a post-event to The Oarsman was not observed on this occasion, but normality will hopefully be restored on March 29th.
