Men’s Monday Golf League Results

The Men’s Monday Golf League played on Aug. 31 at David L. Baker Golf Course in Fountain Valley. Seven men and two women challenged the par 62, 4000-yard 18-hole executive course. Located adjacent to Mile Square, this course has numerous water hazards and no par 5’s. This makes it friendly to all levels of golfers but still presents a challenge.

A cool and humid start to the morning became a lovely day. Not surprisingly, the consistent course condition and the excellent weather yielded six birdies plus all scores were under par.

Masks are required at the Pro Shop, plus while waiting to tee off. The snack bar was open, and there is outdoor seating. No masks are required on the putting greens or driving range nor on the course itself. The golfers are all respectful of each other’s personal space and social distancing is observed. Golf carts are single person only unless you are from the same household.

All scores are net (actual score minus handicap). A Flight handicaps range from 0-20; B flight, higher than 20.

A Flight Winners:

First Place: Sam Choi, a very nice 7 under 55; second: Bill McKusky, 5 under 57; third: tie between Ron Jackson and Fujio Norihiro, 3 under 59. Sam, Bill, Ron, and Fujio all had a birdie each. Sam and Bill tied for fewest putts.

B Flight Winners:

First Place: John Peterson, a spectacular 11 under 51 plus a birdie; second; tie between Bob Munn and John Meyer, 5 under 57; third: Dale Quinn, 3 under 59; fourth, Keiko Sekino 1 under 61. Bob had a birdie and was closest to the pin on the 110-yard par 3 fifteenth hole. John was closest to the pin on the 100-yard par 3 third hole and had fewest putts.

Men’s Friday Golf League Results The Men’s Friday Golf played at Riverview Golf Course in Huntington Beach on Sept. 4. Ten men accepted the course challenge on the picturesque par 70, 5800-yard course. The weather was sunny and warmed up nicely. The Santa Ana River runs through the middle of the playing areas, so there is lots of sand but no water in the riverbed yet. A few strategically placed trees and palms require accurate drives. With many elevation changes and gullies, club selection is particularly important. The grounds were in especially good condition so several low scores and five birdies were not unexpected.

Masks are required at the Pro and Coffee Shop, plus while waiting to tee off. No masks are required on the putting greens or driving range nor on the course itself. There are no shoe or golf ball cleaners and the flags cannot be moved. Golf carts are single person only unless you are from the same household. There is outdoor picnic-style seating.

All scores are net (actual score minus handicap).

A Flight Winners:

First Place: Bill McKusky, 5 under 65 plus a birdie and fewest putts; second: Gene Vesely; 2 under 68 plus 3 birdies and closest to the pin on the 100-yard par 3 ninth hole; third: Dave LaCascia, 1 under 69; fourth: Ron Jackson, par 70; fifth: Sam Choi, plus a birdie and closest to the pin on the long, 150-yard par 3 second hole; sixth: Fujio Norihiro.
