Santos hits first hole-in-one shot

By Sandy Anderberg, Clarendon Enterprise  

  Golfer Mike Santos has played a lot of golf; and after years of trying for a hole-in-one, he was finally able to join an elite group.  His hole-in-one came on hole number five at the Clarendon Country Club.  Santos conquered the par three 202-yard hole with a three iron.

Slick Johnston won the weekly men’s game on Wednesday, and he did so by shooting ‘below his age’.  Johnston, who is 80 years young, turned in a gross score of 76.  His net score of 63 topped the field.

Todd Curry finished second with a 64.  Bob Kelly turned in a 67 for third. 

Sherol Johnston won low gross with an 80 for the 18 holes in the women’s game on Thursday, and B.J. Johnson won low net with a 67.  Maxine McLaughlin, Sandy Anderberg, and Mary Ann Sawyer tied for second low net at 70. 

The team of Doug Kidd, Cody Watson, Larry Lincycomb, and Robert Wright. won the nine-hole scramble on Friday night with a five under par.  Three other teams competed as well.

There will be an 18-hole scramble on Friday, July 4, beginning at approximately 3:00 p.m. after the parade. There will be no free green fees that Friday.  There will also be a two-day 36-hole Two-Man Tournament July 12-13.  Entries are being taken at the Pro Shop.

The pool and the grill will be open throughout the holidays, and you can learn more information on all that is happening at the CCC by calling the Pro Shop.
