Members turned out in force last week for the inaugural Awali Half Cup stableford competition. This new competition, sponsored by a group of members called TFIG (meaning Thank Friday It’s Golf) who wanted to put something back into their beloved Awali Golf Club.
An excellent field of 90 players took part throughout the the day. It was a tale of two halves. The morning players had calm conditions and Khaled Salem’s gross 64, net 61 for 45 points looked the likely winner until Jill Allison came in later, unphased by the windy afternoon conditions, with a magnificent 47 points to claim the trophy.
It was a good day for the ladies with Nicola Bailey 3rd on 44 points and Ariette Paul 6th on 41 points. 4th and 5th were Alan Staunton and Abdulla Mubarak with 42 points.
