I’m accepting sign-ups for next Saturday’s event at the Links, first tee time at 11:30. If you are still involved in the Handicap, please look at the website and check who your next opponent is and let me know if you have contacted said opponent. I’ll pair you up but just be aware of where you stand. Thanks, Jim

Next Sunday, June 19 is our next tournament at the Links. Yes, I know it is Father’s Day. As importantly , it is the final round of the US Open. So in an effort to get out there as early as possible, Links/Woodlawn members have booked 3 tee times in Links member slots so that all Woodlawn members will get out earlier, even the last groups. If we get 32 players, the last group will tee off at 11:39 and everyone should be off the course by 4:00, leaving you time to get home and bask in the attention from your family. And isn’t Father’s day supposed to be the day dad gets to do what he likes? To those who won’t play on Father’s Day all I would say is grow a pair!!!

Hi,

This is a message from Jim ‘Sam Champion’ Murphy:
‘The weather prediction for Sunday is pretty gloomy at the moment, with lightning/thunderstorms figuring prominently in the forecasts. We are monitoring those forecasts, but there is a high chance of cancellation of Sunday’s tournament at Split Rock.
Please check your email regularly until then.
In the event of a cancellation, we would reschedule the tournament to Sunday, 6/26.’

On a different note, a number of first round handicap matches still need to be played. Please make every effort to get in touch with your opponent and get the match played.
Also, please email me, Jim and John O’Meara with a result when you have one.

Thanks,

Thierry (on behalf of ‘Sam’)

This tournament will be your last chance to play first round handicap matches. If you don’t know where you stand, look at the website, Woodlawngolfclub.com and click the tab ‘championships’ to find out your opponent. It is also a chance to play your first round CC or B match.

I hope to hear from many of you in the next 36 hours….have a good healthy week, Jim

From: James Murphy

Apologies for some hiccups with my email this past week. I had messages I sent to legit email addresses bounce back as ‘undeliverable’. So I’d like to get rolling with sign-ups as early as possible for Sunday June 5 (7:00 AM) at Split Rock to avoid a repeat.

First round handicap matches can be played up to, and including, the June 5 event. This is a hard deadline and no extensions will be given. And CC and B matches will be also made for that event.

From: James Murphy

Yesterday’s results:

Congrats to Dan Curtin and Gerry Noone for winning the Partner’s with a net 62. The Champs declined the opportunity to represent Woodlawn at the MGA partners even in June and that honor will go to second place team of Mulligan-Bennett who carded a better-ball 66.

On the individual side:

Ist Pat Lafferty 86 off 14 net 72

2nd Phil O’Meara 73 ( match of cards with Tom O’Meara)

Low Gross Tom Bennett 82
CTP 3rd hole Kieran O’Sullivan ( only player to hit green!)
CTP 10th Bob Wallace 7′ 2″

Long Drive 15th Jim Murphy

Thanks to all and see you on Sunday the 5th
