Minor places in golf as Army wins

Navy had to be content with minor places at the Sir David Martin golf grand final day at Kogarah Golf Club in Sydney on August 10.
Albatross beat Creswell in the decider for third and fourth, and Kuttabul defeated Other Sydney Establishments (5 v 6).
But the major drama was reserved for the grand final between Air Force and Army, with Air Force picking the worst possible day for a form lapse – losing 6-1 to Army.
Staged by the Naval Golf Association (NGA), teams competed to decide final ladder positions, with 51 players participating.
A close game was expected between Air Force and Army, with one win apiece in games against each other during the year. Air Force’s loss to Army in the first round was its only loss for the year and it was the clear favourite to win.
Air Force had shown great form leading up to the final, winning its matches easily. In the game that really mattered, Air Force put in its worst effort for the year and was bitterly disappointed with the result. The SDM competition will resume in February.
