Cheers Gary (and Leanne) for all of your efforts and all of the other marshals and supporters who braved all of the elements to make this all possible. And well done Julie, a worthy champion of this year’s WGP.
A wise man once said – “You’ve got to love what you’re doing. If you love it, you can overcome any handicap or the soreness or all the aches and pains, and continue to play for a long, long time.’
Next time anyone complains about their handicap just put them another 30 seconds back.
