IC XI - day 5

We saw our first early morning clouds of the week as we set off for the short journey to Valle del Este. This short video features the two stars of the day on the 1st tee:


I took the buggy up to the tiger tee at the 3rd hole whilst Bill and Keith waited to play their tee shots off the men's tees:



The clouds soon cleared and we had another beautiful day and the overall scores were very respectable for a change. Bill was still struggling with his cough, but his golf was magnificent and his 38 points was the best of the week. Here's Dan presenting him with his ball:

I felt a bit hard done by in the matchplay draw - for the 3rd day in a row, I was up against the two best players of the day - Syd and Bill had been first and second on Monday, then it was Syd and Keith on Tuesday, followed by Bill and Keith today. Was I fated? - was it bad luck? - or do I simply bring out the best in my opponents? Seems they make exceptional efforts to beat me!
