Tournament Summary:
by Rod Manalo: Secretary of the RSMC

54 members entered this tournament with the goal of winning their specific flight. There were 4 flights. Handicap differentials are within 2-3 strokes in the middle flights, but there will always be larger gaps in the 1st and last flights.

Course was in excellent shape.  The greens were fairly fast, with a few challenging pin placements.

Once again, GHIN Indexes were used for this tournament because all the members who had entered had a higher tournament index calculated when compared to their GHIN Index. The Board agreed that the lower of the two indexes was to be used.

The RSMC tries to award prize money to one third of the flight. Therefore, you will notice that the first and second flight paid out 5 places and the third and fourth flight paid out 4 places.

1st Flight: (15 members with handicaps from 4-12): Both Joe Farley (6) and Fernando Delmendo (9) shot a net score of 67. Joe took first place via the scorecard playoff. Mark Dietrich (7) and Mike Spiller (4), shot a net 68, but Mark took third place after the scorecard playoff. In fifth place with a net 69 was Gary Sigel (8).

2nd Flight: (13 members with handicaps from 13-15. There were initially 14 entries before a player withdrew. That is why there were 5 prize payout places): Scott Petersen (13) took first place in this flight with a net 67. In second place was Vince Dominguez (14) with a net 69. Taking third place was Charles Walker (13) with a net 72. Mike Connerley (13) was fourth with a net 73. And in fourth place was Harrison Roth (15) with a net 74.

3rd Flight: (13 members with handicaps from 16-19): Mike Katz (16) shot an impressive 82 for a net 66 to win this flight. In second place was Tim Tomko (17) with a net 67. Scott Rebuck (16) was third with a net 72. And Mike Cathcart (17) was fourth with a net 73.

4th Flight: (13 members with handicaps from 20-32): Frank Scholl (20) shot a net 66 to win the flight. One stroke behind in second place was Jim Wilson (22) with a net 67. In third place was Jerry Kuenster (21) with a net 68. And in fourth place with a net 72 was Ed Martin (27).

Member with the low gross score for the tournament was Mike Spiller with a gross score of 72.

The member with the low net score from the most improved list this month was Mike Katz (16) with a net 66.

Congratulations to all the winners.
