October 8 & 15, 2014 Midweek Club Championship

2014 Midweek Champions
Low Gross:  Pat Mar & Keith Felte
Low Net:  Jean Chong & Ron McKenna

Well, we dodged the rain bullet, barely, and finished our 36 Hole Championship Tournament for 2014. It turned out to be a nice day with cool to mild temperatures under overcast to sunny skies. The wind even died down early for 13 men and 5 women vying for our most prestigious event.

The Low Gross Champions were Keith Felte (80-77-157, net 137) for the men and Pat Mar (98-91-189, net 137) for the women. Congratulations to both of you, well played.

The Low Net Champions were Ron McKenna with an astounding 62-64-126; and Jean Chong for the ladies with a nice 67-65-132. Jean’s final round 98 was her best of the year. Very nice golf from both of you. Rounding out the remaining positions for the men were: Leon Taylor’s steady 66-66-132, Don Sperling’s close 67-66-133 and Jim Coombs’ clutch 70-64-134. Second low net for the ladies was Barbara Conerly’s nice 75-69-144. Congratulations to all our winners for 2014. Hope to see you all at this year’s Christmas and awards party.

Closest to the Pin:
Round 1, Dick Carlsen 8’ at #12 and Dave Springer 2.5 inches at #5, with Kuniko Takeuchi taking both the ladies’ prizes, 23’ at #5 and 7’ at #12.

Round 2, it was Dave Springer 15’ at #8, Bob Thomas 7’ at #17, and Barbara Conerly grabbing both ladies prizes with 10’ at #8 and 14’ at #17.

Lastly, in the optional skins games, there were 7 in round 1, in a 11 person pool and 9 in round 2, in a 12 person pool. Totals were as follows: Chong-2, Kinion-1, Mike McKenna-1, Ron McKenna-2, Sperling-2, Springer-2, Taylor-1, Thomas-4, and Waits-1. Thanks you all for playing. Our final tournament of the year, the “turkey shoot" will be a modified stableford format held on November 19th. I hope to see you there,
