The final leg of the 2016 Monthly Medal Championship was held on Saturday 26 November at the Rössmund Golf Club near Swakopmund.

The weather was almost perfect, but a little hot at times with a slight breeze to cool things off, with a field of 31 golfers opting to go fishing on the golf course and other to play some real golf. Several good scores were posted due to the fine weather conditions and the excellent condition of the golf course. Players were not only hoping to bag an excellent catch but also to pick up the last points on offer to determine who would wear the 2016 Green Jacket.

All in all six two-clubs were recorded by Jacque van der Merwe, Gert Cloete, Denis Haimbondi, Sonny Ndalumbumo, Marlon Swarts and Stefanus Bonifacius. It was great to have Miguel Tordesillas on hand to officiate at the prize-giving and also enjoy a round of golf.

Winners on the Day:

Overall: Stefanus Bonifacius 66 netto. A division: Aldun Strauss 69 nett. B div. Sonny Ndalumbumo 69 nett. C div. George Murasiki 74 nett. Juniors. Dirk Coetzee 78 nett. Woman. Mary-Ann Boltmann 69 nett.

It did not take long and we were ready to announce the Medal Master for 2016. This time around it went to one of our old “die-hard” golfers, Achmet Abrahams, who was well in the lead going into this final leg.

Winners: 1. Achmet Abrahams 111. 2. Dennis ­Haimbondi 100. 1:Licuis Nande 93 (Defending Champion). 4. Helmut Ndjen­dja 91. 5. Marco Swarts 81. 6. Woman. Lucille Abrahams 114.

In addition to the Medal Master the annual Club Matchplay Championships had come to a close for 2016. In the singles Bertie Saunderson walked off with the laurels with a win over Michael Ludeke whilst in the doubles final Denis and Theo Haimbondi were successful in defeating Kevin Wentzel and Willie van Zyl. Once again a big thank you to Novanam for their continuous support of real golf at Rössmund GC. Thanks also to Miguel and Robertha for giving up their time every month to be on hand at the prize-giving. Well played, guys, and good luck for 2017.
