The annual Hobday and Lorenson Yellow Ball Golf Tournament at Castlecliff in Whanganui on Sunday is again expected to yield some colourful language.
The tournament format pits teams of four against each other with each team receiving a numbered yellow ball in addition to the individual balls they decide to play.
The yellow ball is rotated among the four-man team and the score reached by that player goes toward the team's yellow ball competition tally while the individual white ball played by the other team members helps make up his or her gross and stableford tallies.
Castlecliff Golf Club event organiser and club captain Grant Clark said if a player loses the team's yellow ball they are then out of that competition, but still eligible for the stableford and the car prize supported by David Jones Motors for any player scoring a hole-in-one on the 13th hole.
"If a player loses the yellow ball and puts there team out of that competition, there's usually quite a lot of very colourful language, but all is not lost,"Clark said.
