WGA Results for October 3rd 2012

A bit of a muggy day for our first WGA Play day of October 2012.  We had a low putts format today where you just count up your putts and see who has the least.

In the 18 hole division we saw three ladies work their way into the payout column of the balance sheet with their exceptions flat stick prowess.  In the third place position we had Lynn Dunn with 31 puts.  The American Ryder Cup team could have used her this past weekend don't you think?  2nd place finisher was Tricia Knight.  She had 30 putts today.   In the top spot today was a familiar face back from the north country was Pat Blank with a low low total of 29.  Great work ladies!

The 9 hole ladies had 5 competitors vying for the head spot at the dinner table.  Beverly Logan found her way into the payout column with a second place finish taking only 21 putts.  The 9 hole champions was Karen Mamuzic, Who found time out from remodeling their home to play a little golf and grab that 1st place prize by taking only 18 putts. Wow!  Nice!

We had one chip in and one birdie today and they were both on the 12th hole and as you could guess by the same person.  Way to go Maureen Buckley for that nice chip in birdie on the 12 hole!

Thanks for playing ladies.  Don't forget to sign up for this weekends Ladies Club Championship and for next weeks WGA Play Day on the 10th.  The format will be Low Net/Low Gross and we will start at 9:00 am for the last time this year.

WGA Play Day Results for Wednesday September 26th

Today's President's cup had an excellent showing of 18 ladies total with 13 eighteen holers and 5 nine holers enjoying another beautiful day out on the links.

In the 18 hole competition we had what looks like a very familiar leader board with Norma Hyland taking the top spot in the Gross side of things.  She scored a 90 to edge out Diane Tate who finished in second place.  Nice going Norma!  On the net side of things we had Cindy Boals and long hitting Pia Orlandi sharing the top spot with a score of 76.  Great going girls!

In the 9 hole ranks we had Heather Barnwell swooping in to collect her first place spot with a score of 56.  She is an occasional player but seems to collect some coin every time she tee's it up.  Another who would qualify for that label would be Mrs. Karen Mamuzic.  She shot a very respectable net 39 to take home first place money.  Nice going ladies!

We had two chip-ins today with Betty Lunch draining one on the 3rd hole and Cindy Boals holing it out on the 9th.  They split the pot that was a carry over from the previous weeks event.  Way to go!

The birdie tree had some action also with Cindy Boals making a tweeter on the 9th hole with here chip in and Maureen Buckley carding a 2 on the 12th for her birdie.  Awesome!

Thanks to all the ladies for competing this week.  We hope to see you next week for the Low Putts format.  We will shotgun at 9:00 am sharp.

Make sure to congratulate our Interclub II ladies on Back to Back to Back Championships! 

Tricia Knights, Norma Hyland, Maureen Buckley, Dot Kennihan, Diane Tate & Becky Deaton

2012 Ladies Member Guest Results

The 2012 Ladies Member Guest was completed yesterday despite the threat of thunderstorms and a tornado watch.  Our ladies are not scared of a little rain or the occasional twister are they.

The overall theme for the event was an homage to Julia Child's 100th birthday celebration "For the love of Julia" so the ladies came decked out in their best aprons and their strings of peals and a few decorated their carts with miscellaneous cooking utensils.  It was quite the event!

Thanks to the hard work of all the volunteers this event was one to remember.  Our ladies really know how to put on a great event and this was no exception.  Karen Finegold and Tracy Lorenz orchestrated the event and recruited some great talent to help pull it off.  Great work you two and to all others who put in a lot of work to make this event shine!

Now we get to the results of the event.  We had two flight in the event.  The Les Champignons flight and the Les Poussins flight.  We had overall Champions from the entire field in the gross and net categories and then we had Gross and Net flight winners.  All the ladies fought hard today to finish through the rain and the wind and they all deserve a bit of congratulations for that for sure.  

In the Les Champignons Flight we had the team of Tricia Knight, Charlotte Leidy, Lisa Butcher & Kit Graves come out on top as the gross flight winners with an excellent score of 5 under par 67.  Great work ladies!  The Net flight winners comprised the team of Stephanie Stokes, Liz Bode, Maureen Buckley and Marty Maugh.  They came in with a beautiful score of Net 58.8.  Nice going girls!

In the Les Poussins Flight we had the team of Beverly Harper, Jan Cashion, Becky Deaton and Jan Stewart claim the Gross Flight winner prize with a 2 under par 70.  Afterwards Mrs. Harper was herd talking about reworking her whole golf game.  Sounds just like Tiger Woods when he was at the top of his game.  I guess she is just not satisfied with perfection.  Good going ladies!  The Net Flight winners were made up of some of our regular 9 hole ladies group.  I guess they are going to have to start competing with the 18 holers after this exceptional tournament performance.  They carded a nice 11 under par net 61 to win.  Congratulations to Cathy Roofe, Kay Bullard, Beverly Logan & Stefanie Cox!

Now on to the overall champions in the Net & Gross Divisions.

The Net Champion came out of the Les Poussins flight and lets just say these girls golfed their balls!  The team was comprised of two Mother-Daughter Duo's.  We had one of our tournament organizers Karen Finegold with her daughter Anne Richter along with Lorraine Chalas and Nicole Chalas.  This team edged out the nearest competitor by half a stroke with 57.2 to claim their prize.  Great work team!

The Gross Champion came out of the Les Champignons flight.  The team of Diane Tate, Cara Hardinger, Mickey Wirtz, and Anne Thompson carded a 6 under par 66 to claim the Over All Gross Champion prize.  Awesome job ladies!

We had some special event winners with two closest to the hole prizes and a hit inside the pearl necklace hole on the 12th.  The winner for the Members closest to the hole on #9 was Tracy Lorenz and the Winner for the closest to the hole for Guests on #2 was Nancy Keel.  No ladies made it inside the string of Pearls on the 12th hole but Kathy Fiske did hit it the closest so she took home the big prize for that hole.  

Thanks to all the ladies for making this event a real success.  It is your exceptional involvement and hard work that makes this event what it is.  Great work and congratulations to all the ladies who played in and helped out with the 2012 Ladies Member Guest.
