Thought of the week 

Golf, perhaps more so than any other sport, has a variety of unwritten rules that can be difficult to interpret and enforce. A failure to adhere to this esoteric code can leave you in a situation where your playing partners or competitors are accusing you of poor sportsmanship. 

During the Solheim Cup on Sunday the European's found themselves in such a situation. After America's Alison Lee picked up a putt she believed to have been conceded, things turned a little ugly when Europe were awarded the hole. Who was right and who was wrong? 

It's such a difficult call to make and one I'm sure none of us would have felt comfortable making under such intense pressure. Do you go by the letter of the law or the more arbitrary standards of sportsmanship and fair play? There can be numerous instances of such a situation during every round you play and knowing what's the right or wrong thing to do can be tough, especially if you're playing with an inexperienced golfer.

What do you think? Perhaps we should do away with gimmes full stop? Click here to let me know your thoughts.


Competition results 

Obviously no gimmes were required for Ben Holden in the Autumn Meeting. Ben had scratch scores of 67&75 for nett rounds of 64&72, winning him the Donald Steel Salver, MacKenzie Cup and a Derby Medal, not bad for one day's golf at The Berkshire! 

Well done also to Toby Couzins who finished just one shot behind Ben in the Donald Steel Salver (scratch) after carding rounds of 74 and 69 for a 143 total. In the MacKenzie Cup (handicap), Freddie Irwin finished as runner-up, two shots behind Ben after rounds of 71 and 67.
