The Tour finally got underway today beginning with a preliminary hole, the sixth at our home club of Holywood. The appalling weather relented just long enough for us to entertain our families and a few friends before we set off for Royal Portrush. The terrible rain continued but pitstops in Doagh, Broughshane and Logans sustained us until we arrived on the North Coast to face the 14th, Calamity Corner. The club were very accommodating and in fact supplied buggies, and a driver (Bob) to take us out to the tee. Now the drama could start...
John teed off first and hit a reasonable shot 20 yards short of the green. Neil put his tee shot further left and shorter. Stephen stood up on the tee (a small crowd now watching). Three lost balls later he gave up....
For the record Neil and John both recorded fours.
After a night in Portrush with our families we head to Ballyliffin tomorrow ready to play there first thing Monday morning.
So far we have cycled 66 miles...only another 1000 odd to go!
