Men’s Golf League Scores

MEN’S MONDAY GOLF LEAGUE RESULTS

The Men’s Monday Golf League played on Aug. 24 at Willowick Golf Course in Santa Ana.

Seven men challenged the par 70, 5800-yard 18-hole course.

Located in central Santa Ana this course has no water hazards but does have long par 3’s and 5’s and so it challenges all.

A cool and humid start to the morning became a steamy, scorcher of a day. Although the greens were in good shape, many of the golfers were disappointed in the condition of the fairways and tees. This may have contributed to the fact that there was only one birdie and just a few rounds under par.

Masks are required at the Pro Shop, plus while waiting to tee off. The snack bar was closed. No masks are required on the putting greens or driving range nor on the course itself. The golfers are all respectful of each other’s personal space and social distancing is observed.

Golf carts are single person only unless you are from the same household.

All scores are net (actual score minus handicap) A Flight handicaps range from 0-20; B flight, higher than 20.

Five men contested the scenic par 70, 5800-yard course.

The weather was initially cool but sunny. Once the sun came out it became a lovely day to play golf. The course has several water hazards and tree lined fairways. Several of the scores were quite low due to the grounds being in particularly good condition with accessible greens.
