March 9, 2013 - Weekend Group - Individual Net and Match Play Qualifier


 
First of all, I wish to welcome and thank the new members who played on Saturday, and congratulate them on having the courage to stick around through the golf and the gathering afterward and experience the camaraderie that makes our club a fun group.  Those new members are; Dante Drake, Kevin Granderson, Keith Felte, Richard Sanchez, Rod DelNero, and Dave Travis.  Welcome gentlemen!  I hope we didn’t scare you away from future tournaments!

Tournament Results:

On Saturday, March 9, 2013 a field of 23 players braved the breezy conditions on this day that the north wind blew.   It was also a day that Bob Olson blew away the field with his best round ever round, gross 84 (net 65) to capture first place in the Individual Net tournament.  It also positioned him as the number one seed in the BCGC Match Play Championship.  Olson out-distanced Bob Benefiel who shot nines of 39-34, gross 73 (net 67).

Other Individual Net tournament results:  Prizes were paid through sixth place in the tournament.

Closest to the pin:

     Hole #8 – Kevin Granderson  - 17’4 ½”

     Hole #17 – Bob Benefiel  - 7’2”

For those of you who don’t know this fact, Bob Olson and Bob Benefiel are brother-in-laws.  Now Benefiel is going to have to put up with the constant reminders from his “favorite” brother-in-law at all future family gatherings until the day he can gain revenge!

The next Weekend Tournament will be held on Saturday, April 20th.  This tournament will be a 2-Man Best Ball as well as on optional NCGA 4-Man Net qualifier.  Get yourself a partner (must be a fellow BCGC member), and come out and have some fun!

See you on April 20th!
