Post Round 5 Review: Riverside

In one of the weaker fields of the season, we turned our attention to the annual Party Round at Royal Riverside.

Another perfect day loomed for golf and the new inclusion of party shirts, which were a hit for the fans during round 5! With only 9 holes on offer and points doubled, there was little time to mess around for the field, as it felt like moving day!

Highlights of the day came from Scott McGregor who won NTP on the par 3, 4th, and took home the money, but chose to donate it back across the bar... what a guy. Longest drive was won by Daniel Sheehan! Onya Sheo!

Again, there were some solid scores, with some of the notables being Michael Stapleton with 36 points, and 3 tied for second place on 38 points; Daniel Sheehan, Michael Caridi & Ivan Jurcic, but the winner for the day, Scott McGregor, prevailed with 40 points to take home the Blue Jacket!

However!... the day's play wasn’t without controversy!... the blue jacket winners integrity was questioned prior to accepting the jacket, when his playing partner Michael ‘Im a snake’ Stapleton, decided it was a good idea to throw up the word ‘cheat’ before scurrying off to the bar! Turns out it was Michael who thinks picking up playing partners balls without telling them it's just part of golf!

So... the controversy was put to bed and it was decided then and there that it would never, EVER be spoken of again... EVER.

We venture out to Growling Frog for Round 6 of the season on Sunday January 19th. Make sure you pay up on time, and don’t upset the President!
