Results: GE Day at Creek (20-Oct)
The inaugural GE Aviation Golf Day was held at a sun-drenched Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club. The players benefited from a change in temperature and a course that was in immaculate condition, but as usual provided a tremendous test of golf, with the cream of the Emirates Group players rising to the top in a densely packed leader-board.
\r\n\r\nThe top three players were inseparable on 34 points - Tony Benecke, Michael Pike and Wayne Classen all jostled for position and could have taken the top prize. However, it was Tony Benecke who, when reviewing the �count-back� had a better back nine from Michael Piek, who clinched second place and Wayne Classen who finalised the podium places.
\r\n\r\nOther course prizes provided a boon to the rest of the day�s players - nearest-the pins were won by Iqbal Ismal (5th and 14th), Paul Marson (8th) and Ross Mann (16th).
\r\n\r\nGE Aviation also provided a range of vouchers and other clubs as raffle prizes - these were all much appreciated by the lucky winners!
\r\n\r\nMany thanks to GE Aviation for their generous hospitality and support for the inaugural GE Aviation / Emirates Golf Day - we hope it will be the first of many more!
