Welcome to Rossdale
On a beautiful sunny day in February at Rossdale I was down at the short practice area having a chip around. On the way back I noticed a tall young lady standing on the third tee. She was accompanied by another lady but there was only one set of golf clubs in sight. The aforementioned proceeded to flush a short iron onto the green which zipped back ten feet on the first bounce to nestle two feet from the pin. This naturally piqued my interest and I decided to watch her tee off on the fourth. After she drilled her driver miles down the fairway like tracer I said to her “you’ve played before” to which she simply replied “thank you”. “Are you a member” I threw out there – knowing fine well she wasn’t. “No, just a visitor” she replied in a soft stilted European accent.
The lady accompanying her (and it then dawned on me she was her caddy) expanded on the former’s modesty by explaining she was a professional and was visiting Australia for the Victorian Open where she unfortunately just missed the cut.
Upon returning to the clubhouse I met fellow board member Cheryl Disher and recounted the above. Cheryl met up with the young lady on completion of her round and promptly signed her up as an honorary member.
So I think Nina Pegova (aged 26) from Russia becomes our first lady professional ( apologies in advance if I’m wrong)) and one to look out for flying the Rossie flag on the big tours.

Taking the top story in our Enews this week is the return of Carol because who doesn’t miss her laugh??
Carol has not stopped moving since the moment she stepped back into the building. No Honour Board, glass or dance floor has been safe from her cleaning capabilities.
