There don’t seem to be too many photos from Day 3. If you recall it was a really wet day and Byron and Tom played a ripping game (only coming in an hour behind the team in front of them).
Let’s hope the weather will be better next year!
Jerry very kindly sent us a link to all his photos, if you missed it here you are: http://picasaweb.google.com/jerry.halford/VivThomasMasters2010#
I threw a few phone camera photos into this little video making machine…
Just to remind you, this was Tuesday 8th June and we played at Quinta da Cima. Weather was getting a little blustery and Sr. Viv Thomas got the longest drive – I’ll prove that in the next post. We headed off to the “Steak on a stone” restaurant later… I’m sure it’ll come back to you as you check out the photos.
Fresh in from Rob Swift (you don’t think I am going to take the blame do you?). They used to say, what happens on tour, stays on tour. Unfortunately the internet was at the party too!
Apparently Bjorn was trying to get his handicap cut reversed. He was trying hard.

Arriving on an idyllic evening, many of us settled into a few bottles of… what was the fizzy South African white called, Viv? Maybe Jerry will remember… Well, the second bottle was as smooth as Sonia Red’s silky little butt. Thanks, Viv!
Avril arrived on the scene touting a cheeky little focacia which went down in record time as Viv took the podium to welcome another set of committed golfers to the party. Third year running and getting stronger!
Later we moved down to the river for dinner and the rest of the crew arrived. Except Bjorn of course. We’ll save him for tomorrow. I just need to add that Tom was looking resplendent in his suave beige jacket and mauve polo. Well done, sir!

Here’s a little quote from Viv:
“…However I have received one mail that has taken me by complete surprise. It’s a link to some interesting reading about one of this years competitors. What a lovely guy, but he certainly keeps his very shady past quiet, or so he thought. Check out the link.
How about these beautiful promo girls for next year’s VivThomas.com Masters Golf Tournament? I’d say its a no-brainer! Lets get the kitty going for the golf girls.
