We played a fun "substitute" one-day tournament today in place of our originally scheduled two-day Individual Eclectic. Each player recorded her individual score with tournament rules (play the ball down), and at the end we drew numbers to establish two-lady teams. Each team's gross scores and net scores were added together to determine the low gross and low net winners.
This is a WLGA-sponsored tournament (no entry fee) with a $200 purse in which each member of the winning gross team and the winning net team won $50. Thanks to assistant pro Kaitlyn James for making the day extra fun with the leaderboard.
Congrats to our winners:
Low Gross - Kathleen Corneil & Debbie Esling - 194
Low Net - Retta McHan and Mary Ann Anderson - 159
Closest to the Pin - Debbie Esling #10, Retta McHan #4
