Another New Year’s Day in the History Books at NGC

The 1st day of the New Year and the 2023 golf season at NGC got off to an amazing start yesterday with a tremendous edition of the Mike Miller Tournament. In its 11th annual playing as the Mike Miller and with a half century of playings in the history books, the ritual of January 1st golf at NGC is a tradition that we all truly love. Champagne was popped (and used as a tee), warmth and cheer filled the air, our shoes got a little wet, and some very good golf was played.

Thank you to all the members, former members, guests, and especially all the NGC staff that made yesterday such a great success. Thank you to Norm Brunelle for opening the season in style and to Maureen Brady & Carolyn LeCrone for providing some great NGC history. Also a huge thank you to Betty Sussmann and all those who brought food to share after the round! We are so excited for what the New Year has in store for the club — can we place an order for this warm weather to carry on straight through to April?

In the Team Net competition, the team of MORE CHAMPAGNE PLEASE  — Jim Prendergast, Matt Nolan, Eric Fleming & Bruce Sedlak — shot a very impressive 52 to capture victory. Well played gentlemen! And, with a score of 59, the team of Average Drive: 238 yards — Weston Happ, Patrick Escalambre, Will Keyes & Calvin Harkless — took home the team win in the Gross Division. We heard they made 18 birdies as a team!

In the individual competition, 18 holes were not enough to determine Gross or Net champions and playoff holes ensued. After 2 shamble playings of #18 to break the ties, Victor Grinev edged out Travis Handerson to take the Net Championship. For the Gross Championship, Matt Hollerback was able to go back-to-back and defend his 2022 title defeating Weston Happ in a sudden death chip-off that followed the 2 playoff playings of #18.

Congratulations to all our 2023 Mike Miller Champions!
