Pay attention to this email. There has very poor keeping of scorecards and I am done having to recalculate everything. Thierry will not be there to help this Sunday so I expect guys to do a better job of keeping an accurate and neat scorecard. Mistakes, whether accidental or not, are too common and won’t be accepted any longer. There will be two cards given to each group. Two players on each card. Keep your score and STABLEFORD points as you are going along. One point for NET bogey, 2 for NET par, 3 for NET birdie, etc. Don’t come into the clubhouse and start adding your points up in there.
Very importantly, there are about 15 handicap ( mostly) and B and Club Championship matches going on Sunday. If you want to concede a hole to your opponent, fine. But there is an important tournament going on, The President’s prize, so Everyone has to play the ball into the cup if there is a STABLEFORD POINT on the line. For most that means up until double bogey. For those with handicaps higher than 20, pick up when 3 over on a hole…. But when points are available, NO GIMME’s! Each tournament has been decided by tiebreaker’s lately and we need to get back to uniform rules. SO everything into the hole!
Since there are so many matches being played, please clearly indicate in PEN on the front of the card, who the winner of the match is. I don’t have the time or the interest to guess who won.
I will decide CTP and LD holes Sunday morning.
Finally, at 11:20am I will be closing up shop for collecting entry fees and checking players in. If you have not arrived by then, it is your job to seek me out on one of the putting greens or the driving range. If you have not checked in with me before you go out, you aren’t eligible for a prize. I will not chase you down, find me in the practice grounds.

We were fortunate with the weather last Sunday, and Pelham Bay was in very good shape too….. There were some issues with Stableford score-keeping, and there were even a few players who did not know that we were using Stableford even after being given cards with just two names on them for ease in keeping running point totals. The FINAL results of the day were as follows, after a discrepancy in point totals was discovered:

1st Bob Andrasick 37

2nd Steve McCrimkisk 37

3rd Bill Marshall 36

4th John Gallen 36

5th Jim Murphy 35

6th Gerry Noone 35

In handicap matches played : Bell over D Curtin G Murphy over Scales McCourt over Browne

In CC flight Andrasick over Gilland

CTP 8 Breen CTP 12 Gallen LD Andrasick

From Jim Murphy:

The next tournament will be next ****Sunday May 31 at 7:16 AM**** at Pelham Bay . I need to know by no later than Thursday night at 11 pm if you are playing. Pelham/SR wants our numbers 48 hours prior to tee off and they are firm about committments. So if you know you are going to play , reply sooner rather than later. Also, seedings and match-ups should be available on the Woodlawngolfclub.com website. It is your responsibility to set up your match. I set up the tournaments but will no longer make the match-ups. The higher seed should reach out to his opponent and arrange a date to play the match. You can then tell me when confirming your intent to play that you have arranged a match and I will place you in a fourball with your opponent.

Particularly to help facilitate matches in the Championships, could you please check your contact info on the website, found on the Contact page. If something needs to be corrected, please email me at j.omeara@inneradv.com. Also, if you do not currently receive emails from me (such as the one yesterday announcing the posting of the Championship draws), then please email me and let me know.

The draw for the individual championships has been made and posted on the Championships page. Please check to see if you qualified and who your opponent will be in the first round.

As a reminder, the first round of the Handicap must be played by the end of June. The first round of the Club and B championships, and the second round of the Handicap championships must be played by the end of July.

It is both players responsibility to contact each other and arrange for the match to be played, even on tournament days. DO NOT assume that your opponent will show up to a tournament and the Greens chairmen will put you together. Matches can be played on any day at any course agreeable to both participants. Make sure you play them by the deadlines or you risk being thrown out of the championship.

John Solon asked that the following be forwarded to the Club:

I received this Masters Tournament application E-mail for the 2016 Masters, if you can you might pass it on
and hopefully some one just might get very LUCKY, it is a bit like the lotto if you are not in you can not win.
See you on Sunday at the Links.
John Solon.
