Dubai: Viv Caley, Cliff Caley, Claire Fensome and Alan Lindsay produced a superb performance over the Wadi by Faldo course to triumph in a Yellow Ball tournament by 10 points.
In hot and humid conditions the format of the event was also tough as the best two-stableford scores per hole counted with one of them being the yellow ball carrier that rotated every hole. The quartet managed to record a superb total of 83-points. 39 of those came from the yellow-ball proving the team coped admirably with the added pressure of the format.
The team of Amy Grant, Ray Grant, Kelly Liu and CJ Chen with a 1-under par total, 73 points, claimed runners-up place. Claire Fensome won nearest the pin on the 8th hole with Cheh Ngim Ratcliffe recording the longest drive of the day on the 16th.
