Rossmund Golf Club News
Dennis Haimbondi and André Barnard (Sanlam) Well finally the eastwind has arrived - I must say a welcome change from the cold we have been having. Fortunately not much sand around but the wind is blowing. Wednesday 1 July, despite the chilly

Saturday 4 July we played the Rossmund Leg of the 2015 Sanlam Cancer Challenge - it was great to see the players turn out to support this initiative - a total of 50 players took, to the fairways. André Barnard and André Fourie were there to represent the sponsor and join in the day together with Joggie van Schalkwyk and Attie Esterhuizen. During the prize-giving ceremony we had a few items up
for auction which helped to increase the day’s donation. There were 3 x 2-clubs - Chris Heunis on No.3; Johny Flook and Sigi Baumgartner on No.16. Nearest to the pin prizes went to - Sonny Ndalumbumo No.7 and Tienie van Rensburg on No.12.

Caro Els and André Barnard (Sanlam) anymore "What kind of a player is Johnny Bean?" asked one member of his caddie on the day before the competition. "Hopeless. He slices, goes into
every bunker. He thinks the only way to the hole is via the rough". "That's great news" said the member. " Not r e a l l y, s i r. H e ' l l probably still beat you."
