Upcoming JWGA Events:
March 29 – Blue Sky – Lone Ranger – The Lone Ranger is a fun foursome event where one player is assigned to be the Lone Ranger on each hole. On the 1st hole, player in position 1 on the scorecard will act as the Lone Ranger. On the 2nd hole, player in position 2 on the scorecard will act as the Lone Ranger. On the 3rd, player in position 3. On the 4th, player in position 4. The cycle then repeats throughout the rest of the round. When playing this format, you will count the Lone Ranger’s ball as well as the best ball of the other 3 players. So, two balls will be counted on each hole.
Registration is open for our three week Championship which takes place on April 5 (Amelia National), 12 (Queen’s Harbour) and 19 (Eagle Landing). If you cannot commit to all three weeks, please sign up as a NIT at the courses you can play. If we have 9 or more NIT players, you will compete in a LG/LN tournament for points.
- The Championship alternates between stroke play and match play. This year’s event is 54 holes of stroke play.
- Participants will be placed in flights of eight according to index. If a tie for eighth place exists after this procedure, it will be decided by a blind draw.
- Medalist: Low gross first day. In the event of a tie, the Medalist will be decided based on the scores of the second day. If still tied, duplicate prizes will be awarded.
- In the event of a tie, the Championship winner will be determined by a hole-by-hole play-off.
- All other ties shall be decided by the USGA Match of Cards procedure.
- Prizes will be awarded as follows: Overall Winner (Champion), and First and Second Place in each flight.
- Once a player has played in any round of the tournament, she will be ineligible to compete for NIT points in any rounds that may be played throughout the duration of the tournament.
April 26 – Mixed Couples – Jax Golf and Country Club: Don’t miss out on the opportunity to play in this special couples tournament. Registration opens on March 29. In this Pinehurst event, both players tee off, then they switch balls. Player A plays Player B’s drive, and vice-versa. Each player hits the second shot. They then select the best of the second shots, and from that point until the ball is holed they play only one ball in an alternate shot format. “His” and “hers” silver ice buckets with liners and covers are presented to the low gross and low net winning teams.
I hope to see you next week at Blue Sky.
Make it a great day!
Linda Hoffman,
President – JWGA
