Some call it “ding and donging”. Some call it “ham and egging”. But whatever you call it, no team did it better in the Father’s Day Pro-Am than the team of Lex and Orion Tzannes, and Henry and JJ Liu.
Mel Carreras was a wire-to-wire winner in the 55–64yrs group. Mel opened with a 70 (-1), taking a one-stroke lead over Steve Champagne, and a two-shot margin over Peter Donovan into the second round. But when Mel shot 68 in round 2 (the best score of the day by 3 strokes!), his final total of 138 (-4) gave him a whopping 9-stroke margin of victory over a trio of players. Steve Champagne (71-76), Steve Christo (76-71), and Henry Liu (75-72) all tied for 2nd at 147 (+5).

All first-round matches have been completed. In the upper bracket, Jim Magliozzi and Mark Bianco defeated Matt Hart and Bernie Doherty 3&2. The other match in the upper bracket pitted the defending Champions, Jack Pawloski and Tommy Benjes, against the veteran team of Dave Riley and Steve Potter. The back-and-forth match was a dogfight. In the end, two back 9 birdies on the par 3’s by Tommy were the difference. Deuces on the 14th and the 17th holes allowed the defending champions to hold off the challenge, winning the match 2&1.

Although the opening day at LGC has yet to be announced, the warmer temps that we are starting to have confirm that it is pretty close at hand. Right now, the golf course is fairly dry, but with several rain days in the 10-day forecast, we will have to keep our fingers crossed.

No amount of botox disguises age when you have tight hip flexors. That challenge visibly impacts your mobility and flexibility. Probably more important is the impact of hip flexors on your golf.

As many of you may know, Patriot Golf Day will once again be conducted over Labor Day weekend, August 30 – September 2, 2024. Patriot Golf Day is the flagship fundraiser for the Folds of Honor Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides postsecondary educational scholarships for the children and spouses of military men and women disabled or killed while serving our great nation, and for spouses and children of fallen or disabled first responders. On Labor Day weekend, golfers across the country are asked to add an extra dollar to their greens fees to fund Folds of Honor scholarships. 91% of donated funds go directly to scholarships! The Patriot Golf Day campaign is jointly supported by The PGA of America and the United States Golf Association.
It has been a quiet event week at LGC. As August starts to turn to September and we see summer days disappear from the calendar, remember, once we get through construction projects and the aeration schedule, late summer and early fall will offer up some of the best golfing weather and course conditions of the entire season. So be sure to take advantage! Take a look at our latest newsletter to read more: https://online.retailtribe.com/Client/OnlineEditor/EMV.aspx?n=6974545&r=3526
With the August golfing calendar cleared of all events to accommodate the ongoing golf course work, there is little to report. All the club news has involved the construction progress on Holes #4 and #5, as well as last week’s tree removal. Despite the disruption, the member response to the changes they are seeing has been very positive. It will be great when all the work is complete, and we are all enjoying the “new look” LGC!
On Sunday, July 28th, 47 golfers teed it up for "the cause". Thanks to the tournament participants and the extremely generous donations received from members, the event raised $7,805 for the club's scholarship fund. I wish to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who participated in or donated to this year’s fundraising effort! Each year, the club awards scholarships to a Lexington High School golf team member, qualifying employees, and competitive junior golfers at the club.

Note: This will probably be your last chance to play L.G.C. before the changes coming to holes #4 and #5!
On day 1, the course was, as they say, gettable. With calm conditions and receptive greens, the scoring was low. In fact, 23 of the 30 teams playing, broke par in the best-ball format of round 1.
