Pakdokter played in the interport match between RSGC and SICC ( Singapore Island Country Club) today. Pakdokter partnered Ahmad Khalid to play against Lim and Lee from SICC. Pakdokter now plays to a handicap of 19, AK 12, Lim 14 and Lee 18. Both Lim and Lee were previously based in Shanghai and are new members to the SICC and this is their first trip to RSGC. They were quite impressed at how central our club is in the city.
Pakdokter had so far managed to retain his form since playing very well in the monthly medal 2 weeks ago. Quite often pakdokter outdrove AK by about 10 yards quite easily. The SICC opponents put up a good fight. We started from the 15th hole and by the time we played the 18th hole ( after playing 4 holes) we were 1-down to them. Pakdokter and AK played well in the next 9 holes ( the 1st Nine Old Course) - pakdokter's pars at the hole 4 and 7 and AK's great putting when it mattered helped us to lead by 2 when we finished the 9th hole.
The SICC pair were not easily demoralised - they came back strongly and reduced their deficit to 1 down when we played the 18th hole. Lim's chip from the apron left him for an easy par from about 3 feet. AK - although was 1 on on this par 3 hole over-putted to about 15 feet above the hole. Thanks to him - he putted in for a par from the difficult downhill putt and squared the holemto enable us to win the match and give RSGC 2 points.
RSGC led SICC today 28 to 12.
