Aki Cup #4: Shirosato GC Report

The fourth leg of the 2014 Aki Cup came to Shirosato Golf Course in Ibaraki yesterday.  Toshimichi Kida had a great round shooting 69 (gross 91) to win the event and 530 points.  It was another fine autumn day for golf and Bahreen Hazeem took second place and 350 points with a score of 71 (gross 83).  Three players tied for third with 73 including Warren Arbuckle (gross 90) and Haru Cup winner Stan Filin (gross 106).

There was also a best ball side game for this event and Toshimichi and his partner, Thierry, won the  event with a net score of 56!  Second went to Peter and Genc with a 62.   Bahreen, in what will probably be his farewell appearance, donated closest-to-the-pin prizes which were won by Peter and Jack.  Thank you for the donation, Bahreen, and good luck back home!

Most of the players seemed to enjoy the course which has a nice variety of holes and mostly flat and wide fairways.  Also appreciated was the lunch buffet with a wide variety of better quality dishes.  But there were a few weak points.  One was the seven hour round time and another was a course wide public address system that periodically reminded players to avoid slow play.  
  
In the overall Aki Cup race, Savuth Kong maintains his lead with 860 points, with Jack and Stan following with 815 and 795 points respectively.  Aki Cup #5 takes place next week as part of the Kouyou Cup at Murasakizuka GC, organized by Steve Novosel. Looks like there will be a good turn out and some spots are still available for those that want to join.
