AA played in the first NFJG PAR-3 (2-day) Tournament at Palm Valley. She was in first place by one stroke after day one, then tied for first place for the tournament. The greens were so slow, very wet, as we have had about 7 inches rain in past two weeks. Ford and AA's shoes were soaked each day.
Unfortunately, she lost in the sudden death hole playoff. Second place is okay and she lost to Lisa Colee, a senior who just signed to go to Stetson College Women's Golf team!
From Director Jack's Newsletter/Highlights: The course will give you a good indicator and tell you where you stand in the short game skills and maybe where some work needs to be done. The course, has just been freshly over-seeded and the ball rolled beautifully, maybe a little slow, but it didn’t take long to get the feel. Just ask Jacksonville’s Overall Champion Moses Compaan who had 12 birdies with only two bogies in his 36 holes of play. He missed just four greens. I’d say that’s an “A” in the short game.
This year’s event included a live holiday gift drawing, a flop shot contest over the NFJG TOUR sign and a putting contest. Six players took home a dozen PROV1’s thanks to our sponsor Tina Wiswedel. Both days included food from Primo Pizza and Larry’s Giant Subs, plus a hole-in-one contest for a $500 scholarship per hole per day. After 900 attempts from the field, Alyzabeth Morgan was reported to being the closest at 5 inches that danced around the hole. Aiden Stokes was the BIG recipient winning the pull cart and Nolan Harper the Titleist Wedge.
Girls 13-18 Division Fleming Island’s Alyzabeth Morgan and Deland’s Lisa Colee tied at 113 five over par and headed to Sudden-death to determine the owner of this year’s Champion’s Ring. On this day Colee would take the honors on a well fought battle to the end. Morgan would take the Silver for her fourth Runner-up Award. Yulee’s Alanis Santiago took home the Bronze Medal posting a score four back of our leaders at 117.
