A dry day and whilst still chilly at least the freezing temperatures had gone. 

Ground remains muddy and little-to-no run on the ball. Quiet at first but the wind sprung up late morning but I’m sure all just pleased to get out on the course again

Padding out the Newsletter

Light on news this week. It’s one of those weeks when I could have done with Rob Taylor to pad things out in his own inimitable and long-winded style!

And so I thought of the next best thing: Artificial Intelligence.

I put the following into Bing AI Chat:

“Write me a short golfing tale about Mr and Mrs Rob Taylor, playing at Lymm Golf Club in a strong wind, and Mrs Taylor gets a hole in one”.

And this is the response (I haven’t touched a single word of it). It could have been written by Rob himself. It just goes to show what a genius we have in Rob: he had arrived at Artificial Intelligence several decades before all the world’s best supercomputers caught up with him!

It was a windy day at Lymm Golf Club, and Mr and Mrs Rob Taylor were enjoying a friendly round of golf. They had reached the 12th hole, a par 3 with a water hazard in front of the green. Mr Taylor teed off first, but his ball was caught by a gust of wind and landed in the water. He cursed and took a drop, hoping to salvage a bogey.

Mrs Taylor smiled and said, “Don’t worry, dear. It’s just a game.” She placed her ball on the tee and took a swing. Her ball flew straight and true, landing on the green and rolling towards the hole. Mr Taylor watched in disbelief as the ball disappeared into the cup. He dropped his club and ran to hug his wife, who was jumping up and down with joy.

“Hole in one! Hole in one!” she shouted. “Did you see that? I did it!”

Mr Taylor congratulated her and said, “That was amazing, darling. You’re a natural. I’m so proud of you.”

They continued their round, but nothing could top Mrs Taylor’s hole in one. She had the best score of her life, and Mr Taylor had the worst. But they didn’t care. They had shared a memorable moment, and they were happy.
