I want to thank the hardy souls who played yesterday despite a gloomy forecast from the Weather Service. The rain pretty much stopped as we arrived at SR and the forecast gale-force winds were nothing of the sort. The bonus was the course was ours alone as we went out.
To the action, my fourball witnessed a virtuoso display of chipping and putting from the winner, Tom O’Meara. Without further ado,here are the results:

Ist Tom O’Meara 82 off 14 net 68

2nd On a tie with Don Courtman, Jim Gilland 81 ( won tie-breaker with 37 on back nine) off 10 net 71

CTP 12 Pat Costigan CTP 16 Steve McCrimlisk LD 17 Jim Murphy

From Jim Murphy:

This coming Saturday at the Links, we will have our last GUARANTEED good weather tournament. That’s right, I have seen the forecasts for the week and I guarantee a beautiful day! While the individual season-long competitions are moving toward a timely conclusion, the Partners is slogging along without resolution. I will ask the Moss-Carey vs. Sherry Byrne match to please make arrangeemts to play before the end of the month of September, so that the Final can be played before mid-October. I am pressuming the Bell-Mulligan vs Brosnan- K O’Sullivan match will be held at this tournament, and I await confirmation from the participants.
At this time, this is who has committed to play Saturday:

Lafferty
Moss
Andrasick
McCrimlisk
Pile
J Murphy
Sweeney

Please text or email me with your intention to play by Thursday evening at 10 PM. As this is also the Woodlawn Memorial, and our well-heeled members are finished with their summer rentals in East Hampton, the coast of Kerry, and La Jolla,Ca., I am hoping for a big turnout Saturday….have a good week…JM

A Note from Gerry Murphy:

We ​a​re doing another ​Myrtle ​Beach trip this year​ -​the dates are Wednesday​,​ ​Nov ​4th to ​Sat​., N​ov 7th​.​ ​We will fly out ​Wed evening and play 2 rounds Thursday​, 1 round Friday, and play​​ early ​Sat morning and then catch the afternoon flight home. The cost is approximately ​$​350 per person and that includes ​the 4 rounds of golf,​ ​breakfast and lunch each day and a few drinks after each round and your room of course. You can book your own flight.​ ​If ​you are ​ interested in going , let me (Gerry)​ know so we can get a head count. We had a great time last year,​ ​looking forward to going back .

​From Jim Murphy:

While it was a great day for golf and Split Rock was in decent shape, the pace of play there was again a major impediment to fully enjoying your round. Rest assured, I will be making our views known to Split Rock management on this. They insist on 8 minute tee-time spacing, and have rangers who drive around aimlessly, not moving along the slow groups, which inevitably leads to insufferably long rounds like Saturday ( and our previous outing at Pelham Bay). One tactic is going to be to ask for earlier tee times next year which usually lessens the logjam , at least a little bit.
Here are the results:

1st net Bill Marshall 84 off 14- 70 net ( Tiebreaker 41 net 34 on back)

2nd Net Marty Moss 77 off 7- 70 net (net 35 on back)

3rd net Joe Stapleton 72 net

CTP 12 Jim Gilland
CTP 16 as unlikely as it sounds, 2 guys in the same group measured equally at ​8’8″: Don Courtman and Mike Curtin

Long Drive 17 Bubba Solon

Low Gross Marty Moss

Next event is at Links, Saturday Sept 19…..I expect all competitions will have concluded semi-finals by that date. If you are in the partners, please contact your opponents and arrange to play

From: Jim Murphy

Here are the pairings, in no particular order, for Saturday morning , first tee time 8:32. As these are not given in order, EVERYONE should be checked in and paid by 8:15. There have been three or four guys at every event that don’t show up until the third group is on the tee. Since, for once, I need to get out of there by 2 PM tomorrow, I will be going out in the first group and can’t sit there waiting for late arrivers.

Scales 24 Lynch 17 Finnegan 13 Stapleton 14
Dooley 24 Maher 19 Talbot 10 Lafferty 12
