A Major Thank You!
Our 2024 edition of the Memorial Cup is in the books and, despite the rain on Saturday, we had an outstanding tournament. We’d like to send out a huge thank you to all the maintenance staff, Matt Doherty, and Jim Sussmann for their tremendous efforts squeegeeing the greens on Saturday morning so we could play! Thank you to Donnee for always being there with the whistle to keep us organized, Lauren for keeping the beverage cart rolling, Terry for marking the course, Chuck Roster for the awesome photos, Silas Nichols for the post-tourney fun, and NGC for the hospitality at our home away from home. And thank you to all our MGA members, especially those playing in their first major at the club!
Finally and most importantly, thank you to all our service women and men who gave their lives for this country. It is their sacrifice that allows us to hold tournaments like the Memorial Cup at the golf club we all love — we are all truly thankful.
Memorial Cup Results
On the course, we saw some great golf played and the good and bad shots alike were surrounded with great camaraderie.
In the net division, playing in the final net group, new MGA member Brad Adams took home the victory shooting an absolutely stellar 2nd round (gross 74) to finish the week -7 net. Congrats and great playing Brad!
And, in the gross division, Clay Thatcher separated himself from the field with a tremendous 2nd round, closing with a 2-under 70 to finish at -1 for the tournament. A truly deserving champion — well played Clay!
