ON COURSE MARSHALLING AT SSGS EVENTS

Most of you will be aware that during the past few tournaments we have had a marshall [mainly Ian McKerron] on the course during play. The initiative for marshalling the course derived from some concerns among members about pace of play in one or two recent events. 

The committee wants to make it clear to competitors that the role of the marshall is not to ‘spy’, single out or, indeed, sanction particular players that may have fallen behind the group in front, but primarily to monitor overall pace of play throughout the whole field in order to maintain flow. 

So far, the mere presence of a marshall in a buggy has been sufficient to remind groups that have fallen behind to slightly quicken their pace without need for warnings or players being ‘put on the clock’. 

We believe that the marshalling so far has delivered positive results and we are minded to continue with this initiative when resources and manpower allow (which will not always be the case). 

These days, complaints about slow play are common in virtually all golfing environments and arenas. While it is sensible to try to address this problem wherever it might arise, there is a danger of becoming overly fixated on the issue when, in reality, around four hours for a three-ball in tournament conditions is not unreasonable. 

To emphasise again, the course marshall is not there to threaten slow groups with sanctions. The marshall’s job is to merely make players aware that they may be losing too much ground to the group in front or are delaying groups coming behind them. 

Of course, the presence of the marshall at any particular part of the course does not necessarily mean he is concerned about a group’s pace of play. He may just be admiring the golf before moving on! 

We hope that members will support this move and trust they show the marshall due courtesy and respect for a job well worth doing.

 Spring Meeting - Kilmarnock Barassie G C 20/21st April

JENKINS SWEEPS TO VICTORY AT BARASSIE AS FIRST ROUND LEADERS FLOUNDER IN THE WIND

An unmatched two-under par second round of 70 secured victory for Royal Troon’s Robert Jenkins at Kilmarnock Barassie in the opening 36-hole tournament of the year.

The Scottish internationalist improved his first round score by five shots to claim the Spring Meeting title by virtue only of a better second round score from Gullane’s Duncan Low who followed a one-under par 71 with 74.

In cool and breezy conditions, Jenkins shot an impressive three birdies and six pars on his second round outward nine to turn in 34. He bogeyed the par three 12th and the par four 15th, but a birdie at the closing hole brought him home in 36.

Low, meanwhile, turned in one-under with birdies at the second and par-5 seventh with his only blemish being a bogey at the par three 4th. Three putts at the 18th for an inward half of 38, three over par, cost him the title.

Joint first round leaders Scott Walker, Gullane, and local player Andrew Campbell couldn’t match their first rounds of 69, slipping to a disappointing 78 and 84 respectively.

Robert Smith, Nairn, finished third with two rounds of 73. His 146 total was also enough to finish runner-up in the nett medal, with John Wilkes, Haggs Castle, running out winner with rounds of 70 and 73

Wilson Bryson, Drumpellier, was third on countback from Ian Jeen, New Club St Andrews, with rounds of 72 and 74,

The Society would like to congratulate and thank all at Kilmarnock Barassie Golf Club for the excellent condition of the course and first class  catering. Special thanks to Steven Kerr, Golf Operations, for his invaluable support and assistance.
