Just a little thought for the future which I’ve put by Admin. Enjoying everyone being involved in this Cyder Cup match play format so, how about an end of season event along the lines of 16 teams of two players (either drawn random, drafted on averages or selected from within the teams) playing.... Round 1 16 teams, 8 matches, winners to Championship, losers to Plate. Round 2 8 teams, 4 matches (Championship and Plate) Round 3 4 teams, 2 matches (Championship and Plate) Round 4 Final 2 teams, 1 match (Championship and Plate) All scored in match play format, better ball. Just using our normal Beer League rounds. Weaknesses? 16 players Round 3 wouldn't count, 24 players Round 4 wouldn't count. That may kill idea for some. Interested in thoughts from the group. Kind of thing you’d like to try or not? Totally Interested !!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Cyder Cup Day 2 Match 1--Better Ball Monarchs ( inflames47 & @bovakian ) vs Strikers ( deathstar & artb ) Wardrobe is important in golf. If you do not dress appropriately you can be uncomfortable which can lead to poor performance. Welcome all to the opening match of day 2 of our 2nd Cup O' Cyder. With the Cup all knotted up tighter that Ashton Fox Ashton's manbun, this opening game is pivotal. The teams arrived at the first tee dressed for success: Charlie sporting his Bryson DeChappeau, Art puffing on his Michael Jordan ciggy, David (I prefer to call him Bova) making everyone bleed from the retina with his choice of colors, textures and patterns complete with his lucky kilt. But Carol stole the show when she strutted to the first tee in he Marilyn Monroe white dress, complete with neckline plunging to depths Jacques Cousteau had never reached. Carol starts hotter than her outfit, driving the first green and calmly rolling in the eagle deuce. Carol and Bova combine for ten birdies over the next 8 holes to take a 2 up lead at the turn. Bova makes a nifty 18 HFNB putt for a birdie on 10 to go 3 up, then the match went tense. The next four holes were halved by stellar play on both sides, leading to the par 5 15th where it got weird. All players reached in regulation with Charlie furthest away followed by Carol, Bova then Art with a great chance for birdie. Charlie's attempt from long distance brazillians the hole and cruises 4 feet past. Carol misses her attempt, her ball stopping on a direct line between the hole and Art's ball. Bova, finding form here on the back, drains his putt for the birdie. Since her partner holed out, Carol went and picked up her ball. Then it happened. Some will call it a wardrobe malfunction; some will insist it was intentional, others say it was inevitable with that outfit. Obviously flustered, Art's birdie sailed wide right. Monarchs win, 4 & 3 Please dress responsibly. Onward. Well played Carol and Dave a great result |

The Cyder Cup Latest
The report just in from Art cements the Monarchs position of being in control with just 2 matches to complete from the opening 2 days. The Strikers need a bit of inspiration. A spark. Who will provide it? Latest Monarchs 8.5 Strikers 5.5

Day 1 Match 5 at Royal Melbourne
Blanton/Fox vs Buenger/O'Dell
All the smart money was on Blanton & Fox to win even if the odds were sh!t.
And it was proved right as the American duo ran rampant over the pair from Europe with it taking to the eleventh hole for them to win the first of the two they won in the match.
It really was float like a butterfly , sting like a bee.
Blanton/Fox win 7 & 5 over Buenger/O'Dell.
After the match all four players met up at the BBQ for some horse p!ss called Fosters and roo burgers and koala sausages.
