GOLF Phoenix Hill Outing Thursday 12nd April Phoenix Hill is located in Dongguan China, around 40 mins away from the Huangguan border which meant leaving the HKFC earlier than previous events. We took off at 7am from the Club and headed North! Traffic was excellent and we arrive at the border smoothly. Our shuttle to Phoenix Hill was at 8.30am in the morning and luckily everyone was earlier than expected. On the way to Phoenix Hill, we were discussing the Masters championship, one of the majors in golf and Sergio Garcia’s 13 on a par 5. It made us feel batter that a professional shot 8 over par on a par 5. Suitably motivated, after our 50 minute drive, we arrived at the club house at around 9.20am and we planned to tee off at 9.40am so we could get back early to catch the 3.30pm return shuttle. The first to tee off were Jonny Brock , William King, Stephen Bottomley and myself. Stephen and I paired up versus Jonny and William. It was a tough match and we were already 3 down after 6 holes. We tried to work our way round and we managed to decrease the deficit to 1 down for the front 9. We thought we are going to get a few holes back on the back nine especially with the par 3 holes. A4 would be the turning point of the match. We all hit a high draw and the slope will get the ball down towards the hole and Stephen had a 6-foot putt for birdie to turn the match. Unfortunately, he missed it and we all made pars on that hole. A great match and Jonny shot 77 and William shot 81 to win the match 3 up. Congrats guys! William and Jonny managed to get the first and second place in the match with 37 points and 36 points. No wonder we lost, they were just a better team. We surely want a rematch. Jonny Brock blasting off Everything ran smoothly and the second and third flights finished 15 mins apart and Allan Homeming managed to get a third place with 35 stableford points. Below is the breakdown of the scoring 1st Place William King 37 points 2nd Place Jonny Brock 36 points 3rd Place Allan Homeming 35 points Best Gross Ted Li 87 points NP hole C8: BF Wong NP hole A2: Don Roberts NP hole A4: Stephen Bottomley NP 2nd Shot NTP A6: Ted Li LDM: Ted Li LDF: Katy Wan So with everyone back by 3 o’clock we got on the shuttle at 3.30pm to avoid the traffic. William also suggested us to play in Zhong Shan located in Zhu Hai as it is the first golf course being built in China. We will definitely be interested in doing this and we most a rematch! Happy Golfing.
