2025 Scotch Cup

   

Our 2025 attempt to regain the Scotch Cup trophy begins July 10th on Mesa Linda and ends July 16th at Laguna Woods.  We have a team full of promise.  The Thursday matches run from 8:36 to 9:40 during our regular Thursday event.  

 

    

Our Second Thursday tournament will be played on Mesa Linda.  The team format will be four players, scoring two best balls net.  Individual competitions by flight include gross, net and skins.  

This tournament has 27 tee time groups.  The middle third is reserved for Scotch Cup team matches with Laguna Woods.  The early times run from 7:32 to 8:28.  The late times start at 9:48 and end at 10:52.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

Ron Plummer is the tournament director.   

The 2025 President's Cup, our only match play event of the year, has completed.  

Our 2025 President's Cup Champions are Mike Supple and Jim Meyer.  Mike won over Greg Prough, and Jim over Damien Wilkerson, in their respective flights.  Mike and Jim will be recognized in the CMSGA Hall of Champions.

Thanks to all of our member competitors for competing.  Matches and results may be viewed through the "brackets" link below.  

   

    

Some corrections were needed to the initial results posting.  This version posted at 10:30 AM, June 20th is hopefully accurate.  

The team of Andersen, Nevins, Johnson and Lencek won at 17 under par by a three stroke margin.  

Individual gross leaders by flight include Jerry Vinland and Alex Cruz (tied at 72), Steve Stranak (78), Allen Sappenfield and Harlan Andersen (tied at 78) and Robert Ou (85).  Net leaders are Jerry Vinland (65), Burnie Presho (64), Allen Sappenfield and Harlan Andersen (64) and Robert Our (64).

Multiple skins winners were Chris Calkin (guest of Sean McGroarty), Peter Cary and Todd Schmeider.  Perhaps more significantly, Joe Mohney's solitary skin in Flight 4 captured all of the money pool for that flight.

Thanks to Bret Bauer for setting up and scoring this tournament.  There are a few extra wrinkles when splitting tees that create complications.  We have tried to have a few tournaments use the Mesa Linda blue tees each season for a bit of challenge.

Congratulations to all the winners!

It was a perfect golf day! We had a couple groups that slowed down the pace of play...it only takes a little extra effort to keep up with the group ahead of you; this will help everyone finish their round in 4 1/2 hours.

Congratulations to all the winners and thanks to Bret Bauer, tournament director.

Our annual 4 club tournament today was fun as always.  Great weather, with 80 total players made it enjoyable for all I hope.  Being limited to 4 clubs was not particularly challenging for some of us apparently, as there were some very low scores today!  6 birdies on #8, multiple skins in all flights, and a 5-way tie for 3rd place in the team event are examples of how well some adjusted to the lack of club selection available.  Congrats to all the winners.

Thanks to all who notified us in advance of their intention not to play after signing up, the tournament directors appreciate the effort.

Thanks, Dan Hudgins, Tournament Director

The winning team of Baccaro, Walls, Westermeyer and Kramer shot 11 under par.  A score that could win with 14 clubs.  The individual scores were slightly higher than our norm, as expected.  The low gross winners by flight were Ned Whittemore (75), Bill Cloud & Sean McGorarty (both 82), Anthony Baccaro (85) and John Westermeyer (84).  The low net flights were led by Bill Walker & Pete DeBoer (both 70), Sean McGroarty (69), Anthony Baccaro (68) and John Westermeyer (66).

The net skins stars were Bill Walker, Ned Whittemore and Leon Tomasyan winning two apiece.  Ned Whittemore also claimed two CTP's (#2 & #6).   

Thanks to Dan Hudgins for setting up and scoring this tournament.  These scores will not be posted to GHIN.  A correction to the team results was made at 10:30 on 5/23/25 showing a five way team tie for second.
