I found this quote about winning: The definition of being a winner is taking 8 strokes to get to the green and one putting. That’s a winner! Keep up the good work!
9 Hole Ladies Golf News by
amy.jung@att.net
Come rain or come shine, the Nine Hole Ladies are on the course. Despite the dismal forecast the rain did not fall on our Spring Opener. Barb Nance and Tina Vierling gave us a charming theme of Pearls, Putts, and Polka Dots. The day included a wicked wicket putting challenge, friendly foursomes, and a lovely lunch. The wonderful winners are:
FIRST PLACE
Sandy Schwartz
Patti MacDoniels
Barb Nance
Maureen Roth
SECOND PLACE
Sally Sprowls
Ellie Yuska
Talie Manning
Val Giglio
THIRD PLACE
Pam Thelen
Laurie Dolson
Karen Peters
Beth Lastrina
However the rain couldn’t stay away from the Nine Hole bring a friend, but the fifteen-minute drenching didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. It was a lovely, low-key outing that allowed our guests to enjoy Forest Hills’ back nine.
What’s up next: New this year is a PAR THREE SCRAMBLE on June 1st (includes the 9- and 18-Hole women’s groups). FLAG DAY is June 15th. On June 29th don’t forget to show your American spirit by wearing red, white and blue.
Banter about the Nine-Hole Course: Scorecards always seem to be a topic of conversation. The pro shop will post our scores on scheduled nine-hole Thursdays. When a player hits her max score, she should pick up and note PU on her scorecard. If for some reason the player putts out and is over her max, her actual strokes should be noted on her scorecard. GHIN will automatically correct the strokes to the player’s max when the score is posted.
