Club Champs… The Club Championship was played on a cold and windy weekend. The conditions were extremely difficult and congratulations to all the prize winners, but especially to the Zwartkop Club Champion for 2018, Brent Goddard who shot a fantastic 67 in round one. Runner-up Robin Ashby, shot a 69 in round 2. Brent’s 146 was two shots better that Robin for the two rounds.
Thanks to our Captain Chris Delport; starters Francois Anderson and Stephen Texeira plus Joe, Ian and Vusi in the golf shop, Dennis and Sharon Bruyns for the scoring and Jannie and his greenkeeping staff. We appreciate all your hard work this weekend in making the event run smoothly.
We’d also like to say a special thank you to our sponsors – Srixon, Aquavita; Pringles & The Biltong Shoppe.

Great to see… We were thrilled to see one of our long-time members, Mayor of Johannesburg, Herman Mashaba enjoying a round of golf with his wife on Sunday afternoon. Mayor Mashaba has played golf for many years and used to be a regular at the club playing with his wife and children.

Gauteng North Junior… Gauteng North held a Junior event at Zwartkop on Sunday afternoon. It was great to see 60-odd youngsters out playing golf instead of being glued to the TV! Well-done to Dean Wilken from Silver Lakes who shot a 71. “Home boys” Marco Anderson finished second on 72 while Carel Cronje won the B-Division.
Boss of Bar Despite injury and illness affecting her colleagues, Tracey took on her Mexican themed Boss of the Bar with gusto! She had Catherine plied more than a few people with Pang shooters while Pringles were the base for our nachos!

Sanlam Cancer Challenge & Shavathon Next Saturday, 2nd June is the Sanlam Cancer Challenge and to coincide with that we will be having a Shavathon.

All the money raised on the day will go to Cancer so bring all your friends and family down between 08h00 – 14h00!
