We had another full field for NEWGA’s Individual Stroke Play (9 Hole Ringer) Tournament this week at Van Schaick Island Golf Club! A picture-perfect day on a picture-perfect golf course! Van Schaick NEWGA Rep Kelly Gordon with the help of other members like Maryanne Ceriello and new head Golf Pro Jeremy Kerr helped make the event a smashing success again this year. Members being greeted by a cooler full of ice-cold beer at the finish was the icing on the cake! Thank you all for your efforts!
Kathy Harkins (Ballston Spa CC) enjoyed top honors, taking home the prize for Overall Low Gross Champion! Kathy carded an outstanding 9-hole score of 34, by improving her final hole with a birdie and edging out Kim Skiba’s (The Edison Club) 35! Carol Preusser (Copake CC) turned in an impressive performance shooting 23 net to capture the Overall Low Net title! In total, 32 players cashed in this very popular event. Great playing all! Check out the complete tournament results at newgagolf.com!
