2012 Ladies Match Play Champions crowned!

It was a battle from the start for our worth competitors of this years Ladies Team Match Play Championship.  We had Karen Finegold and Lois Lee on one side who advanced to the finals by overcoming some excellent players like Stokes & Chalas in the first round then going to 20 holes against Little and Butcher to get into the finals.  On the other side we had Dot Kennihan & Becky Deaton who dispatched Points & Lipomi in round one then tackled the always tough Hyland and Tate to reach the finals on their side of the bracket.

Today's Match started out with excellent tee shots from all competitors but Becky Deaton's par on the first drew first blood to see Kennihan & Deaton going up one after the first.  Karen Finegold fired right back with a par on the difficult 2nd hole to even the match.  Then it was Dot's turn to contribute with winning two holes in a row for her squad with bogey's on the difficult 3rd and 4th holes.  Becky helped out on the 5th hole with a nice net par to take the third hole in a row and put her team up 3 after 5 holes.  With a bit of back and forth for the remaining holes on the front nine we had team Kenihan & Deaton up 2 after the first 9 holes.  After halving the tenth hole team Finegold & Lee

brought the match back to even with victories on 11 & 12.  That is where it became a dead heat while the two opponents halved the next 4 holes.  Lois Lee came up big on the 17th with a nice par net birdie to take a one up lead into the 18th hole of this exciting match.  With a bogey on the last hole that was good enough to tie team Kennihan & Deaton and earn the Championship for Karen Finegold & Lois Lee.  Great work ladies.  I would like to congradulate both teams on there excellent play!

WGA Results for 8-22-12

Well it is about time for the Pro to come off of his summer sabbatical and get to work don't you think.  I certainly agree with you on that one so here we go with today's WGA Play Day results for Wednesday, August 22nd. 

The ladies had a bit of a tough day today based on some of the scores turned in to the Pro Shop.  But there was our very own Norma Hyland at the top of the list again in the Gross category with a score of 85 to claim her tidy sum of $8 in pro shop credit for all of her hard work.  Diane Tate survived a scorecard playoff with Tricia Knight to claim second place with a score of 92.  In the net division we had a tie at the top with Tricia Knight and Susie Points sharing the top spot with a score of net 75.  Congratulations to you ladies! 

The 9-hole division had 4 ladies come to play with Judy Vanica winning the gross division with a score of 61 and Cathy Roofe, who was reluctant to turn her card was the net winner at 47.  Great work ladies you will each see $4 added to your sweeps credit accounts for all of your hard work.

No chip in's again this week so next week we will have a 3 week carryover!  Big money ladies so make sure you show up next time.

Birdies were had by both Tricia Knight and Dot Kennihan on hole #2.  Nice!

Thanks for playing ladies.  Next week we have an exchange day at #7.  We will take the first 12 ladies signed up.  It will be a 9 am shotgun start and the cost is $35pp that includes lunch.  Sign up sheet is in the pro shop so hurry up and sign up.

Best,

Dave
