WGA Results for June 26th, 2013

With the temperature gauge climbing today some of our players were hot! hot! hot! The format was
ONES.  That is where you count only the holes that start with O N E or S.

The Gross winner today we had a tie between Ann Filo & Norma Hyland.  The both fired a total of 41 in the ONES format to claim that top spot and a share of first place prize money.  Great work Girls!

The Net side of things had a tie alos for the first place spot.  Lynn Dunn and Betty Lynch were the best of the Net today with their score of 34.  They were also just ahead of their nearest competitors by one shot.  Great work ladies.

Is anyone noticing the theme today of ties? In the 9 hole division we had a three way tie between Carol Spears, Cathy Roofe and Tina Maisano.  I guess they felt like splitting all the money today!  Nice going girls.

There was only one chip in today and that was Bev Harper!  She made it on her home hole #5.

The birdie tree had only one addition to it and it was Betty Lynch.

See you next week for our format of Presidents Cup.

Best,

Dave

2013 Couples Club Championship Results

This year's Couples Club Championship was a very well attended event and I would like to thank everyone that took the time and effort to play in the tournament.  We had 10 teams competing for the crystal this year and that always coveted invite to the Champions Dinner.  The format for the Championship was Alternate shot.  We had the divorce lawyers on high alert as many marriages were tested on the links today.


The Gross Champions are no stranger to the top spot of a club Championship.  The team of Bruce Chalas and Lorraine Chalas have won their fair share of tournaments.  They did it today by alternating shots and coming up with a total score of 82.  There was some post tournament squabbling about how many shots were hit into which hazard by one of the teammates but it all seemed to work itself out as these two will get another invite to the year end Champions Dinner.  Well done Bruce and Lorraine


The net side of the competition was quite close with many couples crowding that top spot.  Unfortunately there can be only one winner here and that was the team of Russ & Stephanie Stokes.  They fired a very impressive net score of 68 to claim their spot at the Champions Dinner.  They were the picture of consistency with nothing higher than a six on the scorecard.  Congratulations Russ & Stephanie!

Once again I would like to thank all participants for playing in this years Championship.  It is definitely your participation that makes a great event.

Best,

Dave

WGA Results for Wednesday, June 19th

We had a small group for our Low Net / Low Gross format today.  Not sure why because the weather was perfect for golf.  A little breeze and a nice warm day.  The 18 hole group had nine ladies show up to duke it out while the 9 hole group had 3 hearty travelers.  

In the 18 hole division we had Diane Tate make a return trip to the winners circle for the Gross portion with her round of 85 which was 9 shots better than her closest competitor.  She was the picture of consistency with a 42 on the front and a 43 on the back.  Nice work Diane!  The net winner for today was Betty Lynch, who is no stranger to a cash payout in the net division.  She posted a very low round of 69 to capture the top spot.  In the second place position we had a tie with Dot Kennihan and Susie Points sharing the prize money.  Great work ladies!

The 9 hole ladies top money winner was Cindy Boals who fired a nice net 39 to rake in some well deserved sweeps credit.  

Cathy Gough was the only skilled player to chip in today so she walked out of here with all the cash today.  Great work Cathy!

We had two additional Aves today.  One for Diane Tate on #8 and one for the chipping master Cathy Gough on the 11th hole.

Thanks to all the ladies for playing today.  Next week we will have the 7:30 breakfast meeting and the 8:30 start for golf with the 1's format.

Best,

Dave

WGA Play Day Results for June 5th 2013

We had  eleven 18 hole ladies and five 9 hole ladies for today's President's Cup competition.  The players turned is some good play with Dot Kennihan showing that she has what it takes to capture the top spot in the gross division.  She had a bit of slow start on the front 9 with a 45 but lit up the back 9 with a very nice 39 for a total of (just in case you have trouble with math) 84.  Great work Dot!  The Net winner is no stranger to that top position.  Betty Lynch fired a smooth 66 to claim first place money with Becky Deaton trailing right behind her at 68.  Nice work in the net division ladies.  The 9 hole division saw Cathy Roofe taking home the Gross prize with her score of 54 while Tina Maisano claimed the net prize with her score of 41.  Well done girls!

The Chip in pot was a carry over from last week and the pot was split between Maureen Buckley who chipped in on #7 and our gross winner today Dot Kennihan chipped in on #13.

The birdie tree was so crowded that I had to make two lines of winners so check out the results sheet below to see who managed to get it under par on a few holes.

Thanks for playing ladies and remember that next week we have an exchange day here with Governors Club on Tuesday and the annual WGA Charity day benefiting JDRF on Wednesday.

Best,

Dave
