I’m pleased to report that Rob Burns has been crowned as the Champion of Greece 2009, having beaten no less a competitor (and the Manager of the Greek Open) than Kevin Carter in the final.
The Dulwich Contingent
The other members of the Dulwich Contingent all performed creditably. Paul Scruby who got to the Quarter Finals and came second in the Golf Doubles. Pat Goodman who excelled in the Doubles and Golf Doubles. Finally me who scored 75% in the 14 point consolation Singles, while only playing 2 matches!
Corfu is a delightful island as we discovered when we experienced Paul and Rob’s thrilling scenic tour of the mountainous region (save when we found ourselves passing the same property twice on our right in what for a short time became a circular tour!) The hotel just north of Corfu town at Kontokali Bay was all that could be desired, with Tony Blok’s 3 lawn centre just down the road in the marina complex. We strongly recommend that you consider entering the Association or Golf tournaments to held here in September 2009 and 2010. A lovely holiday as well as enjoyable Croquet gathering with representatives from clubs all over England, details from me.
