From Jim Murphy:

On Sunday July 26th, Woodlawn will take on the Crown City GC in the Links Founders Cup competition at 11:30 AM. We would really like to field a strong team for this event as we played a bit shorthanded in the other Interclub match two weekends ago. Please let me know if you will be available for this match and I will pass it on to our team Captains….thanks and have a good week!

Sunday July 5th saw a strong field that and a nice early tee time. As usual, despite arriving on the scene at 6:28 AM, I was greeted by the sight of Dan Curtin working on his short game. Take note, maybe that’s why Dan is a contender almost every time we tee it up.

The results of the day:

1st Jim Murphy 39 points (77 off 10)

2nd Dan Curtin 38 points (88 off 20—21 points on back 9)

3rd Joe Browne 38 points ( 76 off 8—-19 points on back)

4th Mike Curtin 37 points 5th Bob Andrasick 36 points (72 off 2) 6th Pat Whelan 35 points (86 off 15)

CTP 12th M Curtin CTP 16th J Browne LD 18th Darren Talbot

Matches: in B scratch : Bill Marshall def. Joe Firth …. Dan Curtin def. John Leavy

in Club Champ. flight: Dominic Mulligan def. Kieran O’Sullivan ….. Jim Murphy def. Thierry Elias

From Jim Murphy:

It isn’t too early to start getting names for next weekend’s tournament at Split Rock. Most handicap matches have been completed and we will turn attention to getting the Club Championship flight and "B" Flight matches done as the first round deadline is July 31. Split Rock needs numbers on the Thursday morning before a tournament now and so I ask you not to delay. If you know you are playing, don’t wait till the last minute. Deadline to sign up is Wednesday night at 10pm…thanks, Jim

From Jim Murphy:

Most first round Handicap matches have been played, however a number of them have not. The hard deadline for this round is June 30. If you don’t have a result, one of the two of you will be out. There won’t be any nonsense grievances heard this year if you miss a deadline. Keep in mind there is NO tournament before the deadline. So find your opponent and play one of the next two weekends!

From: Jim Murphy

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.
