“We play with friends but we don't play friendly game..”

Chronicle of KPMGA

by D. B Matzin


Started its inauguration early in 2006 under the unification of jovial golf nuts who labeled it then as FOM Club, bestowed in honour of senior founding fellow old men (FOM) who were often targets of provocative remarks by their fellow young men (FYM). Ridiculed by 'slanders and insults’ in a number of friendly grueling pastime undermining their capabilities, FOM took the juvenile fellow mates to punishing defeat. Concluded on par if not better hat-trick of victories proved that the old horse still yearns to run....... As more and more FYM joined the club that it began to change its identity. The nuts called it KPMGA to reflect the atmosphere and eccentricity of kampung way of sport. The 'association' grew from a tiny seed to a mighty nut.

If you think, you’re Golf Nut – this will be a venue for you to sprout!!!

Novelty Game - 28th Nov 2010

Fellow KPMGA-ers,
What fun it was ! The novelty game was also a farewell to Sharbini (who is leaving SSB and moving to KL), Ali Sajut (who is retiring.....and his 3rd farewell) and Yusri (who is also leaving SSB and moving to.....tba...and his 2nd farewell).
We had 7 flights and played 9 holes. 3 flights playing the front 9 and 4 flights the back 9. The game was played with all participants only allowed to bring 5 iron clubs and a putter making 6 clubs in all. No driver, woods and hybrids. It was quite challenging for all. Tuan President with the guests as flightmates was the subject of some vehement grumblings as he was using a 2 iron which performed like a driver (according to the farewell flight mates). Nevertheless, as it was an iron, there were no grounds for any protest. Mr. Protest (@ Ali Sajut) is also leaving us.
The following are the results:

Front 9
1. Jamil playing 40 net
2. Shahrudin playing 41 net
3. Then playing 42 net

Back 9
1. Kamal playing 37 net
2. Tuan Presiden Haji Drahman playing 37 net (OCB)
3. Wan Zailah playing 38 net

Ladies
Nur Jannah playing 50 net.

Note that the high handicappers were all capped at 24. So 12 for 9 holes.

So to all Fellow KPMGA-ers, that is the last event for 2010. Watch out for more activities in 2011. Happy New Year to all and also the Muslim New Year falling on 7th Dec 2010.

Happy Golfing !
