LW Men’s Golf Club players post two holes-in-one

Fifty-six golfers played March 27 at the second Leisure World Men’s Golf Club Tournament of the month at the Turtle Lake Golf Course.

A very rare hole-in-one event was registered twice. Bill McKusky carded his on the 65-yard 11th hole, and Richard Yokomi recorded his on the 84-yard 17th hole. The club congratulates them both.

The low gross competition was won by Bill Lyons, followed by Mike Mayfield and Bob Barnum. Best net score was 46 by Paul Shellenberger, followed by Yokomi at 48, and seven others at 49. Closest to the pin on the seventh hole was club treasurer Byron Schweitzer at 3 feet 10 inches, and Yokomi was closest on the 16th at 0 feet 0 inches by virtue of his hole-in-one.
