Hariphunchai, 23.04.2025
Another lovely morning for golf but it was very hot by the time we finished. We had 12 members playing today. The course is improving and it won’t be long until the greens are perfect. We welcomed our newest member Shane Lambert to the group.
The scoring was a bit up and down, two players however stole the show. In third place was Lamyai with 37 points, second place was Serge with a fantastic 41 and our winner today with an exceptional round of 43 was Leon, well done everyone.
Please remember that next week’s event at Hariphunchai has been moved to the Thursday morning, same time and same price.

Lanna, 14.04.2025
Today, only the stand-in captain turned up. It is a shame that the 4 members who said they would play didn’t advise me of their change of mind as it would have saved me a wasted journey!
As no member has volunteered to take on the role of Captain, Lanna no longer will be a CMSG regular event with immediate effect. If anyone still wishes to play at Lanna then find a Captain and we shall reconsider this decision.
MaeJo, 11.04.2025

Hariphunchai, 09.04.2025
We had 8 members in the competition today. The course was in far better condition than last week, the fallen trees and debris had been removed. The greens remain heavily sanded which made the putting more challenging. It was Julian who mastered the greens on the front nine, sinking two lovely putts for birdies. The course remains very quiet and the first group was able to finish in just over 3hrs. Tied for third place were Julian and Brian on 34 points, in second was Lamyai with 35 points and in first place was Paul on 38, well done everyone.
Lamyai, Julian, Paul and Brian.

The weather today was ideal for golf and as an added bonus the golf course was in a very good and improving condition. Today we had 16 golfers in the competition which was a Nassau format. The winner of the front 9 was John De Jong with 20 points and the back 9 was won by Graham also with 20 points, however the overall winner with 34 points was Donald Otten with 34 points. Well done to all winners.

Lanna, 07.04.2025
5 members today on an empty course and so we were able to complete our round in just under 5 hours! It is getting hot and we were all drained as we finished. The course is not in too bad of a condition though, and better than it usually is at this time of year,
Today in second place was Rene Baachi with 33 points, but the winner today was stand-in captain for the day, Julian Wing with 35 points.
We are looking for a new Captain to take charge of Lanna, so if anybody would like to volunteer please contact any member of the committee. Full training will be provided if required. In the meantime, Julian will captain next week’s event, but this will be the last one that Julian will take charge of.
Sorry no photo, but you don’t want to see one of my ugly mug!

Hariphunchai, 02.04.2025
We had 10 members in the competition today. Yesterday’s strong wind had caused significant damage around the course with many trees been blown over, unfortunately the two trees on the ninth that cause us so much trouble survived. Most of the fairways and greens were covered in branches and leaves, the greens had also been sanded recently which added to the challenge. Even with the extra terrain challenges the scoring was generally far better today.
In third place was Lamyai with 37 points and our joint winners today on a magnificent 39 points were Tom and Paul, well done guys.
Tom, Lamyai and Paul
MaeJo, 02.04.2025
Today we had 10 golfer with 9 in the competition, and we played a Stroke format. The winner with a net 67 was Randy and in joint 2nd place was Nigel and John Orlebeck with a net 73.
The course was in good condition and the weather was also good, albeit white deposits all over the course making locating the golf balls a challenge.
