KLOGS July Game 2026

15th July 2026 Templer Park

The Day’s Play

We had perfect golfing weather at the excellent TPCC where two flights teed off from tee boxes 1 and 10. Conditions were cool but warmed up considerably for the back nine. Most players found the course a challenge, especially on the greens. Play was relatively quick, with most flights completed in four and a half hours. Nobody managed to break 40 points, and shooting at or near net par put players in contention for a prize.

Before play, El Prez welcomed guests Lloyd Green (G1), Ian Wright (G1), Marc Fritschi (G2), and Steve Cook (G2), followed by a pre-game briefing to play well, putt out, and always hand the ball marker to the caddy.

Lunch was taken at the nearby TKS V River Forest Seafood Restaurant, with a turnout of sixteen players. Chez thanked Tony for organising the game and the restaurant. Thanks again to Sigi and Ricardo for the golf balls and red wine, always appreciated. Sigi is due to undergo a heart bypass operation on the 16th of July, and everyone wishes him well and a speedy return to the course.

Placings

Nominations for COTD were light this month due to several misdemeanours, with only one nomination going forward: Peter, for nearly hitting the previous flight with his ball off the par-3 11th, leaving his buggy partner behind at the start, and for being late despite challenging the committee about it the day before. By unanimous cheers, Peter takes COTD for July 2026.

Full Results

Nominations for COTD

There was only one nomination for COTD due to several misdemeanours:

Peter

For nearly hitting the previous flight with his ball when he drove off on the par 3 11th hole. For leaving his buggy partner behind at the start, and for being late despite his challenge to the committee the day before.

Special Prize

Since play was at Templer Park, El Prez thought it worthy of a photo competition at “Geddes Corner” – the corner just before the 13th tee box where Paul was tossed from the buggy in a ceremonial manner by the erratic driving of Chez during last December’s Xmas golf day. Each flight was asked to take a picture, and the winning photo came from Matty’s flight.
