The November Medal was held at the Peransang Templer Golf Club. 32 golfers filled up the 8 flights which teed off from the 1st and 10th holes of the course on this bright and sunny Sunday afternoon. Except for 'Professore' Khalip Raffar, the other 'super seniors' were absent despite a 'special category' being created for them with permission to tee-off from the white box. Perhaps some of them were indisposed and some had gone on holidays.....
Hopefully pakdokter will see them all in the major event of December - The SGC Masters!
Roslan Chik, Zaher, Fakhrunnasri, Abdullah Abd Malik..
pakdokter, Hamid Shafie, Dr Rezuan, Arham Salam...
Pakdokter played in the flight consisting of Hamid Shafie ( one year pakdokter's junior in school), Arham Salam ( one year pakdokter's senior) and Dr Rezuan, a lecturer in Engineering at the Tekcnical University of Malaysia in Malacca. Dr Rezuan was in Form 5 at STAR in 1977 - so he was many years pakdokter's junior in school.
The Peransang Templer ( at least to pakdokter) is a very challenging and tough course. The fairways are mostly narrow and tight and there are many lakes to cross in many of the holes. All in all, it punishes poor golfers like pakdokter, who had already played 18 holes in the morning at the RSGC. Pakdokter lost 3 tubes of 'new' balls' to the lakes and forests of 'Templer' and came home with less than 20 points!
Hamid Shafie did quite well to come second in the 'Senior' category and Arham made it to the 'Overall' winning list.
the ball went into the hazard on the right...
this one skirted the left jungle and stayed in the fairway....

pakdokter received feedback from YA Yusof Ahmad that some of the 'super seniors' were 'insulted' by the concession given to them to tee from the white box! So this was another reason for their absence....Wow....pakdokter was hoping to qualify for this category actually....
Btw - YA Yusof Ahmad was not well that weekend and would certainly be at the year-end Master's, health permitting - Insyaallah.
