The Little Bennett Golf Course in Maryland has been chosen to hold the monthly tournament this time.
Early in the morning, the temperature was still in the mid 40's and everyone was wearing thick layers.
However, after 4-5 holes, the layers came out, because the temperature has reached high 50's and it was one of the perfect weather to play golf. It's considered as a luxury since the month of December is just days away, where the cold weather is lurking.
As a result, a lot of players played their best games.
Mazlan, with the handicap of 10, still managed to win the tournament by a huge margin. He scored a 35 points, 3 ahead of the closest rival. On the back-9 is where he scored most of the points, with 21 points total.
Mr Shahril was the 1st runner-up, continuing his great improvement, by scoring 17 at the front and 15 at the back, bringing up the total to 32 points. Dato Othman came close behind, with only 1 point separating them on the first nine, scoring 16 and 15 for a total of 31 points.
The three of them were awarded with a single handicap stroke, making Mazlan a 9 handicapper, DCM 21 and Dato Othman 11.
The rest of the field were not disappointing as well, with Taufiq scoring 30 points, Faizal with 28, Col Hisham with 27 and Mr Nasa with 26 points. Tamizi and Salleh had a below par performance scoring 23 and 16 points between them. However, this is golf, and we know that it's just one of those days. Both players are a great contenders and will bounce back in the next tournament for sure.
Among the other players who were enjoying the great weather outside were Datin Aishah, Datin Ana, Adawi, Hj Suhaimi, Mr Isham and a newcomer, Mr Fadhli.
The Malaysian (and friends) Golfers in DC would also like to bid farewell to Mr Isham who are going back to Malaysia, and Mr Nasa who will be playing golf in Peru in the near future. They have both been a great members of the club, and Mr Nasa had been a strong contender for every Monthly Medal Tournament.
