ST ANDREWS UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
FINISH THIRD IN DUBAI STABLEFORD

St Andrews University students David Moore and Jonathan Jeffrey had the joint second best Stableford point score of 17 over the 12 holes of the Lionweld Meiser Christmas Weekend’s team event at Al Ghazal Golf Club, Dubai.
But David and Jonathan were placed third after losing out on a card countback to Richard Whiteside and Martin Sutherland who also totalled 17pt.
Winners with 19pt were Juma Massa and Daniel Van Dyk (wonder if he is related to Dick of that ilk?).
Ladies’ winner of the individual competition was Sue Murray with 25pt. She sounds as if he is Scottish.
If you know why the St Andrews University students were competing in Dubai and whether or not Sue Murray is Scottish, E-mail us at colin@scottishgolfview.com
Why were they playing over 12 holes? Well, believe it or not, they have had a lot of rain in the Dubai region lately.
