tf1 n. select group of golfers who made ir ro the I Ch.ttrg Shan course , near Zuhai, after awindy day out on the Macau course the day before were
robbed of a rare sight: Rolf Kranepuhl presenting himselfwith his ownprize, an International Herald Tribune leather bag. The IHT chief hit the longest drive of the day but had to leave before the prizegiving. Still,
it
had been a beautiful day, organised by Chung Shan member and energetic new Golf Society secretary Julian !l'alsh. He was rewarded for his labours by witnessing David Thurston managing to hit his ball (that's probably a strong term for ir) into two supremely impossible lies on the 18th. The Macau round of the twodayer was won by John Schidlovsþ, with 35 Stableford points. Chung Shan went to Paul Mariage ,w1th34. Brian O'Reilly hit the longest drive at Macau, with Chades Chan nearest the pin. Stella Ng was nearest the pin at Chung Shan.
Thanks to the otherprize donors: MarkAshton
of Terrace on the Peak and Robert Harland of Coca-Cola.
