We have had a few personnel changes at the Club, with our well-respected Director of Golf exiting his role. This is going to lead to a reallocation of roles and responsibilities between those working at Burhill so I went in early this morning to have a chat with Mike Evans, our Head Professional, to run through some of the things that will now fall within his orbit.
I hope that by working closely together we can help ensure that nothing falls between the cracks and that (competitive) golf at Burhill continues to be as well-supported as it has been of late.
The admin over, it was time for our regular Tuesday game. We had had a number of drop-outs (bad backs, doctor's appointments and other excuses) so ended up as a three-ball. A brief discussion on the tee followed and a Skins game it was.
This was all the rage on TV some 20 years ago or so, but the ratings then collapsed when Tiger Woods dropped out. At one point, players were earning $1 million dollars plus for competiting in these made-for-TV events. Not bad for an afternoon's golf!
Our stakes were a little more modest: after 18 holes, two of us had accumulated 10p each...
