Lyn Kunze is golf champion
The winner of the Womens Golf Champion at Everglades Country Club for 2001 was Lyn Kunze.
This is a first championship win for Lyn and caps off four good rounds of golf.
The title was well contested with Bev Crowther being the runner-up in a competition which also saw good rounds from Patsy Elliott, Lorna Turner and Hien McManus, who was Champion in 2000.
"If I never win it again, I will always be proud of this moment," said Lyn Kunze.
"It is the ultimate in women's golf at this club, and I will be doing my best to hang on to the title."
Second Division Champion is Mary Kelsey who, with a handicap of 23, secured her place with a brilliant round on day two of the event with 82 off the stick.
Runner up was Trish Melnik.
Jackie Crawford took time out from her job as Gala Day hostess to win the Third Division Championship. Runner up was new member Liz Gordon.
The net event winners were: First Division Tatiana Rickit, Second Division Beryl Callingham, and Third Division Marj Cadman.
All four rounds of the championships were played in perfect weather.
Course superintendent Phil Imber was congratulated on his magnificent presentation of the course.
The presentation and cocktail party was held on Thursday, May 24, and was followed by a celebratory dinner in the club restaurant with the usual and rather noisy frivolities.
The second series of Womens Golf Clinics has started, with Darren conducting lessons on Mondays and Tuesdays.
There is still a long waiting list for these clinics, reflecting their popularity.
Applications for membership continue with numbers of female members expected to be known by the end of June.
In Pennant, the club's Grade 4 team was leading until Monday May 28.
The team came close to winning the pennant but were narrowly beaten by a stronger Gosford team which is now in a play off with Toukley to determine the winner of that grade.
The women who made up the team were Narelle Szelid, Ev Field, Coral Walker, Joyce Jacobson, Edna Johnston, Jan Livingstone, Jackie Crawford, Elaine Clemesha, Anne Woods and Jan Johnson.
Away from golf, member Mella Rickit has just announced her engagement to Paul Weatherstone.
