Captain’s Par 3 Scramble<br />

On Friday 10th September we shall have a 12 hole Par 3 event which<br />

uses some of the Struie Course and all three of the Academy holes. All<br />

12 holes will vary from 150 yards to as short as 60 yards. The format will<br />

be a Three Player Team Scramble - Ladies, Men & Mixed all allowed. The<br />

first tee time will be 14:00. Further details and how to enter will be issued<br />

soon.<br />

Top 100 Courses<br />

Have you played the 100 best courses in the world? Well one of our<br />

members has and he has put this amazing journey down on paper in a<br />

book that he has now published. The introduction has been written by<br />

Lorne Rubenstein which tells me that the content must be pretty good!<br />

The book is available for sale here https://globalgolftravels.com/ but<br />

unfortunately only in the US. If any Royal Dornoch member buys the<br />

book they will also receive an 8” x 10” of the author’s favourite scene at<br />

Royal Dornoch which you can see opposite.<br />

When you order, drop Greg a quick note at gohlendorf@comcast.net to<br />

let him know you area member so he can include the photo.<br />
