LATEST NEWS FROM THE HKUAA GOLF INTEREST GROUP



Event:-     Intervarsity Match 2017

Date:-      Saturday and Sunday, 14 & 15th October 2017

Venue:-    Phoenix Hill Golf Club, Dongguan

Format:-  Texas Scramble Matchplay and Gross Stableford on Day 1

Betterball Matchplay and Gross Stableford on Day 2

(Both Men & Ladies in Lion and Tiger Divisions)



Not even the ferocity of Typhoon Khanun (Typhoon Signal No 8 was raised in HK on Sunday morning) could dampen (pun intended) the fighting spirit of the HKUAA Golf Team in its latest title defence of the annual Intervarsity Cup which was held on 14-15th October 2017 at Phoenix Hill Golf Club (Feng Huang Shan) in Dongguan.  For those that did not dare to venture outside, the rain and extremely strong winds made playing golf very difficult.

This victory marked the 3rd consecutive year that HKU has emerged victorious in recent years.  Overall HKU has won the Intervarsity Cup 9 times of the past 14 years.

Led by Captains Roddy Lau and KC Lai, more than 60 very keen and tough HKU players (both men and ladies) faced an equally strong team from the Chinese University of HK.  HKU won the Match by 16 points over the 2 day event -  64.5 : 48.5.

The format of the first day of the Match this year was Texas Scramble Match Play for the Lion Division and Texas Scramble Gross Stableford for the Tiger Division.

The format of the second day of the Match was Betterball Match Play for the Lion Division and Betterball Gross Stableford for the Tiger Division.

Both Divisions contributed points to each Day’s Result. 

Day 1 was played on the A & C Courses and Day 2 was played on the B & C Courses.

Following the tough matches on both days, the Teams enjoyed a sumptuous banquet and shared a few beers and fond memories amid an amicable atmosphere.

Special thanks to:

Phoenix Hill Golf Club for preparing such a great course

Edmund Wu for assisting in the door prizes and golf balls

Dr Wilson Lee and Kenneth Lee for the Quiz Contest

Cooper Leung for being one of the MC’s

Lesley Chak for arranging the uniforms

Amigo for helping us with all the arrangements

Organizing Committees of both Teams

 

Congratulations to all the players for another very enjoyable and memorable weekend of golf!  No doubt, everyone is looking forward to next year’s rematch.
