2008 Wildwood GC Results

 

Date  Event Name  Course Players  Winner Friday 11th July 2008 2008 ACGA Major #4 Wildwood GC 46 + 2 Guests Stuart Austrie   Stuart finally wins with a superb display of golf Once again after some heavy rain in the preceding days prior to the Wildwood Major we were blessed that the showers dodged this part of Surrey/Sussex border and kept us dry for the whole day.   The 3 loops of 9 holes at Wildwood provided a good test for those patience enough to think their way around the course, where many holes where blind and not particularly long. Certain members who had had a seek preview of the course a week or so before who were expected to feature heavily in the final result, proved this exercise was a complete waste of time.   Only 5 players scored 18 points or more in the morning 9 holes. Worthy of a particular mention was Jacqui Habor who with 19 points was seen enjoying complimentary lunchtime drinks courtesy of Messer O’Garro and Co. Also enjoying their lunch were Murray (22), Thomas A (18) Austrie (20) and newcomer Philip Amuaku (18).   more [−]  Preparing your winners speech before teeing off for the afternoon we all know can be fatal but for a certain Stuart Austrie did not find it too hard.  Having had at least a couple of unused winners speeches ready from the past and the thought of being named ‘Son of Mr Roger Panton’, Stuart was determined not to let this one slip away from him.  BUT only just.   Whilst Keith Murray was choking his way to 29 points to claim 5th spot (he blamed  the pickle onion and gherkin at lunch), coming up on the inside rails was another one of the Thomas’, no not the one with the cigar, but younger brother Andrew ‘Uriah’ Thomas.  A cracking 40 points in the afternoon put him a point behind Stuart and took his 2nd place with pride.   Dr ‘Steady Eddy’ Ray Maginley followed his 4th place at Canon brooks with; yes you guess it, another 4th place and continue to climb the OFM table.   Roger Goddard who has not a fan of the course got on with the job in hand and posted very respectable scores of 17 and 36 to take 3rd place playing off 8.   Sadly Jacqui looked like she enjoyed her complimentary drinks too much and could not match her morning score but 14th place was one of her best finishes in a major for some time.    The Bristol crew went home with something to talk about with Tennis Russell in 6th place and Fezz taking nearest the pin.  Watch out London crew our West Indian patties are in danger of coming West Country pasties!!   Without question Stuart was a popular winner and 20 & 39 points shows he’s been putting in the hours on the course particularly on a Thursday!  He has served his time in the ACGA and his win was well deserved.   The bridesmaid has finally become the bride. Well done.   SCORES & PLACING [−]       Players  Hcp New/Hcp AM Pts Brds Front 9 Back 9 PM Pts Finish Brds Total    1 Stuart Austrie 12.8 10.4 20   18 21 39 59 2 108   2 Andy Thomas 18.3 16.8 18   20 20 40 58   90   3 Roger Goddard 8.4 8.4 17 1 19 17 36 53 2 88   4 Ray Maginley 14.2 14.2 17   15 20 35 52   86   5 Keith Murray 14.2 14.3 22 1 15 14 29 51 1 84   6 Tennis Russell 8.1 8.1 16 1 15 19 34 50   82   7 Steve Garner 10.6 10.6 14 1 18 16 34 48 1 80   8 Colin Parson 5.3 5,.4 15   17 16 33 48 2 78   9 Austin Simmonds 10.7 10.7 13   18 16 34 47 1 76   10 Frank Skinner 12.1 12.2 15   17 15 32 47 1 74   11 Ossie Roberts  (Snr) 6.8 6.9 16   14 17 31 47 1 72   12 Leo Faure 14.6 14.7 13   15 17 32 45 2 70   13 Henry Laville 10.9 11 13   16 16 32 45   68   14 Jacqui Harbor 29.5 29.6 19   12 14 26 45   66   15 Chris Thomas 11.2 11.3 12   19 13 32 44 2 64   16 Damian Queva 8.4 8.5 13 1 16 14 30 43 1 62   17 Randy Plowright 12.1 12.2 16 1 12 15 27 43 1 60   18 Mark Cato 8.6 8.7 17 1 9 17 26 43 1 58   19 Philip Amuaku 22 22.1 18 1 13 11 24 42   56   20 Gary Miller - Titans 18 18.1 12   18 10 28 40   54   21 Cassius Brown 15.3 15.4 10   18 11 29 39   52   22 Peter Bennett 12.8 12.9 11   10 18 28 39 1 50   23 Patrick Winkle 11.9 12 12   14 13 27 39   48   24 Caswell Moseley (Snr) 11.5 11.6 13   15 11 26 39   46   25 Gary Cameron 13.9 14 16   7 16 23 39   44   26 Malcolm O'Garro 9.2 9.3 11   11 16 27 38 1 42   27 Fearon Newell -Titans 20.4 20.5 7 1 10 20 30 37   40   28 Greg Worrell 23.7 23.7 10   15 12 27 37   38   29 Andy Ferdinand 22.2 22.3 11   12 14 26 37   36   30 James Noel  (Snr) 18.9 19 11   13 13 26 37   34   31 Sedwick Gordon 8.8 8.9 13 1 8 16 24 37 2 32   32 Frank Fevrier  (Snr) 13.3 13.4 13   12 12 24 37   30   33 Simon Dixon 11.4 11.5 13   9 14 23 36   28   34 Phil Nugent 19.3 19.4 12   12 11 23 35   26   35 Dean Witter 5.4 5.5 9   11 14 25 34   24   36 Sean Brady 15.4 15.5 10   11 13 24 34   22   37 Pableto Douglas -Titans 22 22.1 11   10 12 22 33   20   38 Steve Lee-Sang 12 12.1 11   12 10 22 33   18   39 Raphael Roberts 12.7 12.8 10   11 10 21 31 1 16   40 Ray Johnson  (Snr) 18.2 18.3 9   17 5 22 31   14   41 Dave Francis  21.7 21.8 14   12 5 17 31   12   42 Mike Small 15.4 15.5 11   11 7 18 29   10   43 Donald McLeod 12.6 12.7 5   15 8 23 28 Eagle 8   44 Franklyn John 16 16.1 9   6 11 17 26   6   45 Michael Griffen 16.1 16.2 4   5 9 14 18   4   46 Del Manderson 11.6 11.6 9   NR NR NR 9   2   47 T Jenkins   (G) 10 10 14   14 16 30 44       48 Tunde Adeshokan (G) 14.8 14.8 10   13 16 29 39                                   Ossie  Roberts  Srn Winner                     Randy Plowright  Longest Drive                      Fearon Newell -Titans Nearest to the Pin
