PNGA Amateur

This week has been extremely busy and exciting as we just wrapped up hosting the PNGA Ladies Amateur and Mid-Amateur.  The busy stretch started several weeks ago getting the course in the best tournament condition we could.  It started with planning fertilizer, irrigation, mowing schedules, and staffing demands.  Putting an emphasis on the exact same conditions for 5 days straight.  Then we set-up the course with the PNGA committee over the weekend, and our plan, course set-up, and playing conditions really turned out well.  Your staff really worked hard this week and you should be proud of them as everyday was pushing a 100 degrees.  There was a tremendous amount of comments about the course and specifically the putting surfaces, good job guys.  Here are a few shots of the tourney.

It was amazing to watch the ladies play and truly watch them hit the ball.  Approach shots with irons, and chipping and putting was just spectacular.  Congratulations to Aaren Zigler for winning the Amateur division and Amanda Jacobs for winning the the Mid-Am division.

After finishing these two weeks we will now move our focus back to member golf.  As you can tell by the forecast below, we will have our work cut out for us.
