Bandula
Impresses
Slightly grey in pepper & salt style well preserved
Bandula Weerasinghe once again hit the bright spot with an excellent
win with 36 points. The 'A' Division classic was his beating Kumar
Boralessa by a slender margin of 1 point. Kumar's sorrow was drowned
pretty quickly at the pleasant 19th.

Division
A.S. Rahim returned to the scene to capture another trophy
beating golfing Ambassador U. Than Tun & Dilip Kodikara by slender
margins.
"C"
Division
Majid Awn did well for himself with a well calculated
win beating M.H. Lee & Deepal Weerasekera who also produced
rewarding efforts.
Gymkhana
Events
In this area Navin Peiris excelled. A spritely player
showing much evidence of impressive skills he picked up the 6 hidden
holes event with an excellent score and then went on to capture
the closest to the hole tee shot at the 9th. There was much evidence
of his popularity shown at the award ceremony.

Player
Well preserved Siri de Silva with his very Russian swing
beat Old Man River Joe Perera to win a handsome Jaguar Trophy.

Kumar
