Red, White & Blue Tournament Results

2022 MGA Red, White & Blue

The 2022 edition of the MGA Red, White & Blue tournament is officially in the books. We’d like to thank all the NGC staff who helped to make the weekend a great success. Thank you to all the players who came out to both compete and take part in the camaraderie that makes the MGA the great group that it is.

To turbocharge the weekend, on Saturday, Mike Helmer made a hole in one on #15 from 178 yards with a 6-iron. Cheers to you Mike!

After surviving white & blue Saturday and an all red tee Sunday shootout, when all was said and done, Jack Sullivan and Patrick Escalambre stood alone as our 2022 RWB Champions. In a dominant performance, with accurate drives and precision iron play, Jack Sullivan took the win in the Net Division at -25. In the Gross Division, after an exciting final few holes, Patrick Escalambre took the well deserved major victory at a very impressive score of -1 overall for the tournament. Well played!
