ANZ Royal Bank Texas scramble March 22nd, 2009

Published April 2009.


Sunday 22nd March saw the return of the ANZ Royal Bank Texas Scramble sponsored by ANZ Royal Bank. A total of 48 golfers from as far afield as Thailand and Vietnam competed in this annual Texas Scramble event. Designed to incorporate team spirit and ensure a relaxed game of golf was enjoyed by all.


Teams of 4 were selected by the ANZ Tournament Committee who outlined the rules of the day and its format. In true Aussie fashion a variety of cold drinks were appropriately on hand to quench everybody’s thirst. The traditional Angkor Golf Resort firecracker heralded the start of the event with competitors distributed on different holes of the golf course.

As the weather heated up so too did the golf and it was clear to see the elite team of Siem Reap locals comprising of Ly Hong, Bun Hai,Phillippe Gagneraud and Bara On Seng were the early pace setters with a blistering 5 under par at the turn, 4 shots of the second placed team. They maintained this lead totaling a score of 9 under par and becoming the 2009 Champions by 5 clear shots. As the participants settled down to for the buffet lunch all that remained was for ANZ Royal Bank CEO, Stephen Higgins to thank all for attending and Angkor Golf Resort for another successful event.
