Can't agree more with this statement.
Again, the weather was not kind to us, especially early in the morning. All flights were delayed by 1 hour due to the rain. Even as we teed off at about 8.30am, it was still raining. The rain did not stop until the 7th hole.
I am not sure if it was the rain or my new swing, my first 9 was horrendous, with 2 triple bogies. Started with a birdie but could not sustain. Had a 12 over for the first 9. Poor Richard, both of us partnering for the first six could not beat Peter and Albert Teo. He threatened to report me to CPIB :).
At crossover, I told myself to wipe out the first 9 from my memory and focus on my game. Weather was perfect on the 2nd 9. No sun, no rain, what else is there to ask for. Shot 1 over for the 2nd 9 with a lone bogey on Navy 4.
Apologies to Dick, who was so kind to give an early slot to me as I needed to run an errand. He ended up unable to crossover due to the rain.
Heard Jonas had a solid Navy 9, he shot even par. No wonder his flight could not crossover. CYM must have deliberately slow the game down to avoid being slaughtered further.

Wow, this Jonas 'key tow hong', did not made a single mistake at Navy. Every 2nd shot attacked pin and masok green, man. Upto 6 holes down 3 holes, how to play. Offered to pay $7.50 to avoid further damage. Wow lau, he so confidence rejected my offer. So I decided to show him my colour.
At 7th hole I hid my 2nd shot to 105m and he put it on again, cnn pow see liao.
I took out my 9 irons and gave it a good hit. It sailed up, pin high, dropped about 15m from pin and rowed to about 4 ft away. The buaya nearly birdie the hole, gave me a fright but I also par it. So down to 2 holes.
At 8, cnn my ball went to the left and rolled into hazard. The buaya 'flicked his tail' and gave a crooked smile. I was disappointed with my tee but did not gave up hope. Found my ball in the hazard but playable, I took out my 5 iron, managed to get it out to about 60m from the green on the left. He hid into the bunker. I told myself, ada chance lah. I used my sand wredge and got my ball on to about 20ft from pin. Alamak, our buaya friend putted from the bunker to about 15 ft. Neh neh ku, know how to play safe, ha. Buaya ada sikit brain. I putted to about 3 ft away. Lucky he didn't masok lobang. We both bogeed and so it's down to 1.
He hid a f*$%ing good shot at 9 but landed in the bunker to the left. I screwed my tee shot to just 10 - 15 ft passed the red tee. My 2nd shot was solid but still on level distance with the buaya. Wow lau, his 7 iron got him to 120m to pin playing yellow. I told myself, if I can get to about 100m still got chance. Again I screwed my 3rd shot and left me with 165m away. I know with his 'tow hong' day he will put it on with his 3rd shot. So I died died must cheong. Took out my 5 iron (these days my 5 iron can carry 160m, don't need my U wood). Hit my 4th shot, sailed thru' the air, alamak kanang pergi lah and tok nam, loh. Maybe still got chance if he top and masok ayer. Prayed hard hard, Lee Heng also. Wow lau, the tow hong really tow hong, pin high and landed 3 ft away from hole for birdie chance. I raised my white flag. Lucky only 9 holes otherwise backside bocho.
Although, lost individual still got chance to win our three's. Lee Heng and myself is up 1 hole going into 9. Need only half to win. Lee Heng got his bogee. So both of us chant 'miss, miss, miss'. I can see the buaya hands trembling but being a buaya how to let the prey lari. So the bite was hard, deep and painful. His birdie got him to even par for the 9 holes.
Well done, Jonas!!! It was fun, the only regret we did not do was taunting you.
