RDGA Tournament Spotlight
RDGA Mid-Handicap (Net) Event #1
Over the years, the RDGA has received comments from numerous members that they don’t play in the RDGA Tournaments because “their game is not good enough”. If you fall into this group of local golfers, one of the two RDGA Mid-Handicap Events for 2012 is perfect for you! These events are targeted at area golfers who like tournament golf, but are not single digit handicap players.
The first of these two events will be held on Monday, May 21st at The Brookwoods Country Club. This event is open to all male and female golfers who are members in good standing at RDGA clubs and who have a USGA Handicap Index of 10.0 or higher. The event will be flighted based on the number of entries, and the winners will be determined based on net scores for the round within their flight. The tournament will be conducted as a 1pm Shotgun start, so all players will be able to see the final results shortly after they finish their round.
The fee for the event is $75. Golf, Carts, golf shop credit for the top contestants and a nice dinner following the round will be provided.
Please come out and join us at the beautiful Brookwoods Country Club for this fun event!

RDGA 2-Person ScrambleReimer and Thornton Clench Overall Victory at Wayne Hills on Saturday
This Saturday the RDGA kicked off its 2012 season with the 2-Person Scramble at Wayne Hills Country Club. With 140 players and a sunny day, the first event was a great success! Teams competed for the overall win and an exemption into the RDGA District Championship John H. Ryan Memorial. In addition, players also competed for prizes within five different flights. The first flight and exemption was clenched by Jacob Reimer (Webster GC) and Kevin Thornton (Genesee Valley GC) with a low score of 65. The second flight's winning team was Greg Voci (Cobblestone Creek CC) and Tim DiSanto (RDGA GC) with a low score of 66. The third flight victory belonged to Brian Haefner and Ross Limuti (both Genesee Valley GC) with a score of 69. The fourth flight overall winners were Durand Eastman's Tim Dimino and Bud Klafehn with a score of 72. In the scratch Ladies flight, Braemar's Cindy Glitzer and Maggie Kril claimed the title with an impressive 74, and in the net flight, the EWGA's Debbie Harper and Karen Lejman won with an 84. We would like to thank the ladies and gentlemen who came to play at Wayne Hills this Saturday. The first RDGA event of the season went amazingly well and the great competition provided by all of the golfers made for a fun event for all who participated. With such a good start, we look forward to an excellent 2012 season. See you on the course! |
