2022 CAPTAIN’S TROPHY
Posted on: 2 July
The first round of this year’s event was played today (Sat July 2) in typical winter conditions.
The leader of the event after round 1 is Steve Goodwin with a solid 38 points who also took out July’s Monthly medal , closely followed by David Johnstone, James McKibbin and Steve Veloso on 37. A further point behind is Mark Belcher who is enjoying somewhat of a purple patch after winning the Ray Keane 4BBB Knockout a couple of weekends ago. In contrast, the other bloke he plays with (and also the
defending champion of the Captain’s Trophy) had 28 points today. Maybe he’s saving his best
for next Saturday?
The full event list can be found on MiClub, and here is a summary of the top of the table. A

PACE OF PLAY REMINDER
Especially at this time of the year we don’t want to be on the course any longer than we must.
I came across this article on the USGA website that lists some great ideas to help with the
pace of play;
A couple of take outs from the article:
• Start smart
• Plan your shot before you get to your ball
• Keep your pre-shot routine short
• Be efficient on the putting green
If you are concerned about your ability to keep up in a field, consider playing at the end of the
field or from forward tees.
