Fujio Norihiro and Bill Zurn each record holes-in-one
The Leisure World Men’s Golf Club played its second tournament of the month on June 28 at the Turtle Lake Golf Course. This round, holes-in-one were achieved by both Fujio Norihiro (Hole No. 4) and Bill Zurn (Hole No. 5), a relatively rare occurrence.
Two groups of three flights of variously skilled golfers played for best net scores (gross score minus handicap), plus four circle holes (shots within a 5-foot radius are rewarded) and two closestto- the-pin challenges.
A total of 52 golfers challenged the course this week. A special low gross challenge was offered, and 17 golfers accepted. Bob Barnum took first place with a terrific 3 under 51; Bill Lyons, second at 2 under 52; Bob Turner, third, at 1 under 53.
Even with cool weather conditions there were 59 birdies and seven circle hole winners. Additionally, 31 of 52 golfers were net at or under par. Closest to the pin on the seventh hole was Young Lee, and on the 16th hole was Thomas Kim. Low net score was June Sup Yoon at 11 under 43, followed by Dennis McMonigle at 8 under 46, Sam Williamson and Jim Bassett at 7 under 47 with 10 other golfers at or under net 50.
