When I took my shoes off.

Yesterday was hot. How hot? When I took my Teva sandals off at the end of the round, bits of the sandal has melted off onto my feet. Let me tell you know, the smell and the look did not go down well with Liz!

Along with the hot weather, there was some hot play. Not from me, though, I am stuck in the World of Average at the moment. South Park saw the good action, though. Bud fluffed up SP6, triple putting and carding a six.

"That's the last of him this round," we all thought. But his tournament experience showed and over the next six holes he got three birdies to level it with George and Mike after 12 holes. One play off later saw Mike take the final victory.

Welcome too to Jeff from Colorado. He told me he wasn't too hot, but then proceeded to launch his first drive with a crisp snap and send it a long way towards the hole. We'll have to watch him!

In nerdy news, I am moving the league over from the spreadsheet to a database. Better for pulling out meaningless numbers and easier to maintain. Should be ready next week. But it will make this kind of thing easy:

FirstName Average of all scores Par Number of rounds HH Average HH Best SP Average SP Best
Bud 39.08 38 13 38.14 35.00 40.17 38.00
Jonny 39.12 39 17 38.70 34.00 39.71 37.00
Mike 40.07 39 30 39.31 35.00 40.93 38.00
George 40.89 40 18 40.00 38.00 41.78 38.00
Andy 41.29 40 24 40.67 36.00 41.92 38.00
Neal 43.19 43 16 43.11 40.00 43.29 40.00
Martin 44.00 45 1 44.00 44.00
Dean 44.33 43 3 45.00 45.00 44.00 41.00
Steve 45.31 43 16 44.44 39.00 46.43 42.00
Pete 48.86 47 14 48.88 43.00 48.83 45.00
Rob 51.00 53 3 51.00 50.00
Jeff 53.00 46 1 53.00 53.00
Dan 58.00 50 1 58.00 58.00


Current league scores are as follows:
Rank Name Score
1 Jonny -19
2 Mike -17
3 Andy -13
4 George -10
5 Neal -8
6 Rob -6
7 Steve -1
8 Bud 2
9 Dean 4
9 Pete 4
11 Dan 8

Mike has about ten days left to pip Jonny before disappearing into the Canadian wilderness for a year. He needs at least two 37-or-better rounds to make it though. And Jonny needs to buck his ideas up - he's been on the same score for quite a while now...
