COVID-19 Update

Recently members were informed that a member of Rossdale tested positive to COVID-19 on Sunday the 21st of June, 2020. 

We would like to inform all members that the identified staff on the day and playing partners of the individual were tested and all results have came back negative. 

As part of the club policy, all are now free to return to the club. 

We hope that this is the end of Rossdale’s relationship with Covid-19 and that all staff and members will continue to act appropriately to minimise that potential risk of any such occurance. However, future encounters may prove to be unavoidable. 

In the interest of transparency we wil always endeavour to keep members informed of any future occurances that are brought to our attention. Whilst always maintaining the delicate balance of the privacy of staff and members affected. 

Stay healthy and vigiliant. 

Andrew Noonan

General Manager

Getting to know the Rossdale Ladies

A note from the Lady President, Robyn McLeod. 

A big hello and welcome back to golf, after our forced hiatus. It has been an age since we have gathered for our warm and joyful lunch customs and the rambling speech by one Lady President, filling you in on the bird life of Rossdale, up and coming events and birthday wishes. 

As a reconnection for all the players, social members and ladies who lunch, the Ladies Committee have started a small project to highlight the wonderful contributions of past and present lady members. 

On obtaining a list of members and their joining dates to Rossdale Golf Club, some well known and loved identities have come to light. The committee has put out a questionnaire to these wonderful women to coax out their histories and showing all members our appreciation to their years of service to the club. 

We have asked a range of questions, including the ones below. 

1. Why did you take up golf?

2. How did you come to join Rossdale?

3. Who was Lady Captain when you first joined?

4. Who was Lady President?

5. Do you recall your first playing group or Monthly Medal group?

6. Your first handicap. 

7. Your best handicap.

8. Is your name on any trophies or honour boards at Rossdale?

9. Which stroke are you best known for?

10. Fondest memories on or off the course/any embarrassing moments?

Next week we will be realsing our first lady member!

Anecdote Continued  

Our second anecdote on Seve comes from the 1983 Ryder Cup.

Unfortunately, although the event was televised it did not come on the air until after Seve’s round so no footage of the shot exists.

Playing against Fuzzy Zoeller at the PGA National in the singles Seve was 4 up after 11 but Zoeller clawed his way back to level after 16 holes.

Both players par 17 and are square with one to play.

The 18th is a 578 yard par 5.

With the honour Zoeller pings his drive down the fairway with a chance of getting home in 2.

Seve hits a duck hook into the rubbish and all he can do is take a 4 iron and try to get it on the fairway but it doesn’t come out at all well and he finds a bunker 250 yards from the green. Fuzzy notes this and lays up with a 5 iron with wedge to the green and in complete control of the match.

Seve is looking at a bunker shot with a six foot lip and the ball 15 feet from the lip.

The caddy is thinking a 5 iron would be the most artillery that could be deployed in that situation whilst one of the pundits in attendance thought a 7 iron would be appropriate.

Seve looks at it for a while and says to his caddy “tres madera”.

Somewhat dumbfounded by this request the caddy dutifully hands Seve the three wood.

He then produced what Jack Nicklaus said was “the greatest shot I ever saw” as he hit the ball 250 yards on the fly with a fade to the edge of the green.

Bernhard Langer described it as the “most miraculous shot that I have ever seen.”   

Zoeller has hit his wedge shot to birdie territory but the 3 wood unsettled him a bit.

Both take 2 further shots to complete the hole and the match is halved.

Zoeller said after the match “they say great golfers make great shots but that one made me blink”.

Next week – the greatest golf shot of all time.
