The second outing of 2024 was a morning event at Somerset West Golf Club on the 25th February – and a glance at the photographs above, it appears that there was more damp conditions on the 1st tee. Teeing off in the final four-ball thereby missing most of the precipitation was Ale Bonora who racked up 38 points and with this, the Bertie, Vivie and Gerry Brand Trophy. Second on 37 points was Nathier Fortune and third on 36 points Andre Makka. These scores being exactly the same as the January outing at Rondebosch. Nearest the pin on the picturesque 7th hole was Alan Cook, a guest who has promised to participate in future outings.
