SCC Annual Golf Championship 2022 group photo.

The SCC Annual Golf Championship (“the Event”) was played on Friday, 24 June 2022 at the Sentosa Golf Club. We were blessed with a full turnout and excellent weather. Clearly the Gods were with us on that day! It was great to see the regular faces and many new faces taking part in the tournament and festivities before, during and after the game. The day began with the registration of golfers from 11am onwards and thereafter lunch was served. Players gathered for the photo session prior to the shotgun tee-off just after 1 pm. Upon conclusion of the Event, our players proceeded to SCC for the after-game dinner of fun, music and dance at The Padang Restaurant. Prizes for the AGC division winners and runners-up including the Overall Champion were presented at the dinner. Our congratulations to the winners of the respective categories. We would also like to take the opportunity to thank our generous sponsors for the Event. We in the Golf Section Committee are grateful to our Members for making the Event a momentous success. We will endeavour to continue the tradition and look forward to your continued support and participation. The next event that followed was the Inter-Club game with Changi Golf Club (CGC) on Saturday, 2 July 2022. The highlight of the day was when our Section Member Vikarna Chaudhri achieved a Holein-One at the 2nd hole. Our heartiest congratulations to Vikarna; well done indeed!

We are coming into the final quarter of the year. We have planned more games and social events for the rest of the year. At the time of writing this article there will be a social game on 12 August 2022 at the Marina Bay Golf Club. Thereafter from 8 - 11 September we have the Interport game with the Royal Selangor Club and a game in Kluang. The response from our Members has been fantastic for both the social and Interport games. Finally, we are pleased to announce that the Golf Simulator is being installed in the Multi-Function Room (former Jackpot Room). It is expected to be up and running sometime in late September 2022. We highly encourage our Members to use the facility once it is up and running. We will keep you posted on all developments.
