VISTABELLA – Our home game today was a medal competition for the Ray Battiste Trophy. Ray was a well known figure in golf ,building and running, the Greenlands Golf Club near Montesinos. He was also Captain and President of the San Miguel Golf Society, a much loved man by everyone that knew him.
The course was in excellent condition with lovely greens, wall to wall sunshine ,a good remedy for good scoring, and we were not disappointed, with Shamus Martin in the Gold Category coming in with a nett 71, to win the Trophy, Some other good scores were also recorded.
