Dreamland Golf Club Members Match-play Championship 2021
It is pleasing to see most of the matches has been played with only one week until the June 14th deadline. Last week we have witnessed some competitive matches, Brian Lawson won over Robert McEwan and Eldar Kerimov beat Scott Blyth 6&4. The match between Rory O'Mahony and Steve Baker ended on 2nd play off hole in Steve's favour. Another tight match was between John Salins and Nick Hore. Although John had 3 birdies on the day, Nick managed to take the match on last hole. Martin Kleinmann and Donald Low found a time to play their second round matches, which ended 5&4 in favour of Martin. We are looking forward for the remainder of the matchups this weekend as we have some interesting ties still to be completed. Good Luck!!
Please Note that for MATCHPLAY it is the responsibility of both players to arrange your match, please feel free to contact reservations to request the e-mail address of your opponent reservations@dreamlandgolfclub.com
When booking a tee time, please let us know that your intention to play a match, so our team can prepare scorecards with the number of strokes given or received during the game.
This year we will also have Runners Up league, if you loose your match in the first round, your name will be entered in Runners Up league which will run alongside our 2021 Matchplay Championship – Even more reason to enjoy this exciting format this summer. Good luck to everyone!!!

Saturday 5th of June 2021 – Saturday Roll Up Results
Excellent playing conditions were enjoyed on Saturday, with 23 members using this opportunity to participate in the weekly Saturday Roll Up. Competition was tight at top of the leaderboard with 2 players – Tofig Afandizada and Dongwon Ryu both scoring 3 under par 39 points. In order to determine winner, it required us to look at their back nine scores. After countback Tofig took 1st place with 21pts vs. Dongwon’s 16 inward points which resulted him to take second place. There was also a tie for 3rd place with Martin Docherty and Michael Paterson both scoring level par 36 points. In order to determine 3rd place winner, it required us to look at their back nine scores. After countback Martin took 3rd place with 17pts. Michael’s 14 back nine points were not enough for him to be on the leaderboard.
Last Saturday 4 players had 2s on their card, so unfortunately not a huge pay-out for your member account. Tofig Afandicada eagled! the 2nd, Lucio Otano birdied the 5th, Martin Docherty birdied the 10th and Leona Paterson birdied both 5th and 10th holes to put 2 on her scorecard.

Course Update
It has been a windy start to summer with a better week forecasted for this week we will be busy rehydrating the course while we have a break from the wind. Last week’s fertiliser application is starting green up the course already which is great to see. Overall the course is in great shape and the greens rolling well.
Monday the 14th we will perform a light vertical cut and dusting of sand to keep the greens in pristine condition. We will also perform some light vertical cutting and sanding across the tees and foregreens keeping on top of any thatch build up from the summer growth.

Please take an extra few moments on the greens to find and repair any ball pitch marks. Please click on the link for short video on how to correctly repair a pitch mark. |

Bogeys & Eagles Par 3 Society
Michael Paterson took the spoils this week with a fantastic 23 Stableford points for this week Bogeys & Eagles event, with 4 pars and a birdie on the tricky 8th hole Michael was two points clear of his nearest rival William Blanchard. William's game this week didn’t start to plan with a double bogey on the first hole but was soon to steady the ship for the remainder of his round which included two birdies at holes five and nine, with a score of 21 points he is certainly worthy of the runners up spot this week. Academy Member Armagan Kirseven claimed the final prize in the competition with 19 points in what was an all-round steady performance. Tural Valizade won nearest to the pin on hole number one this week. Be sure to pay a little more attention on the double green this week to check pin location, not that I am still bitter about this one lol.
For those of you looking to play this week please contact Andrew on +994 55 414 77 67 if you haven’t already.
