And so my friends, OLGA’s 2024 season is now in the record books. My New Year’s resolution is to take golf lessons from Dari Akin. Not only did she win low gross and low net in the OLGA State Medallion competition, but she also won the OLGA Cup competition (low net event). But first I need to conquer my “bête noire”(French translation is “black beast”). Anyway, in my case it’s the bunkers.
Anyone else struggle with them? I’ve had many lessons on conquering them but not much luck so far. Oh well, hope springs eternal.
Enough about my problems. On to some players who have conquered their black beasts. OLGA’s Most Improved Golfer for 2024 is Janet Barnett. Way to go, Janet.
Here are the OLGA Cup winners, other than Dari, the overall winner:
Flight 1: 1st Mary Perry, 2nd Glo Malmberg, 3rd Mary Figgis
Flight 2: 1st Cathy Engen, 2nd Roselyn Hoiby, 3rd Leslie Smith
Flight 3: 1st Amanda McLoone, 2nd Terry Jung, 3rd Dang Teater
Flight 4: 1st Karen Bustillo, 2nd Judi Walker, 3rd Linda Morris
Sliver Flight 1: 1st Julie Hastings, 2nd Sharon Skoworn, 3rd Kay Lehmkuhl
Sliver Flight 2: 1st Kathy Burns, 2nd Karen Faeger, 3rd Doris Swanson
Here’s to better golf in 2025!
