Save the date: LW Men’s Golf Club picnic is May 28
The LW Men’s Golf Club spring picnic is scheduled for May 28 at the Clubhouse 1 picnic area. Dinner will be a barbecue.
Sixty-three golfers teed off April 23 at 7:30 a.m. at the par-54 Turtle Lake Golf Course. Each player competed for best net scores (gross score minus handicap), plus four circle holes (shots within a 5-foot radius rewarded), and two closest to the pin challenges.
With a cloudy sky and a dry course, it was anticipated that scores would be good, but only 35 of the 63 players scored net at or under par, but there was a new record of 105 birdies and a near record 15 circle holes.
Closest to the pins was Seon Kim and Bill Lyons. Lowest net score for the round was Young J. Kim at 10 under par, followed by Dennis McMonigle and Dong On Kim at 8 under, and Mike Mayfield at 7 under. Best gross score was Lyons, who shot a 6 under par round, and there were six others who shot gross under par.
Tournament statistics: Overall average gross score for all 63 players was 61.1 or seven over strokes above par. Average net scores for all teams was 52.1 or just two strokes under par.
A flight winners (handicaps of 0-5): Dong On Kim, first place; Mayfield, second; Seon Kim and Lyons, third; Ralph Koizumi, fourth; Alan Sewell, Jae Choi and Bob Johnston, fifth.
B flight winners (handicaps of 6-10): Young J. Kim, first place; McMonigle, second; Seung Lee, third; Richard Yokomi, Hyon Shin, Walter Kim and Ron Jackson, fourth; Wong Song and Bruce Bowles, fifth; John Rudosky, sixth; Ron Steele and Jun Um, seventh.
C flight winners (handicaps of 11-18): Joon Sup Yoon and Kevin Lindstedt, first place; Jon Russell, second; Noe Alcaraz and Steve Walker, third; James Choi, Scott Tuchfarber and Dennis Anctil, fourth; Mark Tal, Dennis Jensen, and Won G. Park, fifth.
The next Guys and Gals tournament will be on May 21. The men’s tournament is played every second and fourth Wednesday of each month. Those who had planned to play in any tournament and cannot should contact Scott Tuchfarber at 909-684-0426, or Dave LaCascia at 801-674-5975 as soon as possible.
