Lourdes was the venue for the third and final round of this year's Expatria Trophy. Coming into the last day the Grenadiers were comfortably ahead so some miracles were called for.
The course at Lourdes is unusual. There are blind shots, evil slopes (nothing to do with 'Top Gear'), ridiculously narrow fairways, lakes abutting greens and all this woven through ten thousand pine trees. To top it all the greens were in very poor condition so it was all a bit of a lottery. It was a lottery won by the Grenadiers who won sufficient matches to maintain their lead and win the Expatria Trophy.
Lunch was in the Clubhouse and an excellent meal it was too with much banter and jollity amply washed down with defeat-numbing wine.
