By Staff Reports
Sunday, June 08, 2008 | No comments posted.
A pair of teams from outside the area won the 2008 Pepsi Invitational tournament for women at Coos Country Club last weekend.
It was the 28th running of the tournament, which included 25 four-person teams.
The event is one of the popular tournaments that traditionally kick off the summer golf season on the South Coast.
The Bend-area team of Nattie Morrison, Nancy Breitenstein, Sue Boyle and Selma Cusick took low-gross honors with a two-day total of 211 strokes in the competition, which included one round of scramble and one round of two-best ball. The top South Coast team, Amy Pendergast, Barb Weybright, Sunny Chang and Sally Woodman, finished third.
Low-net honors went to the Grants Pass-area team of Jane Kelly, Reva Flower, Sherry Williams and Karen Oakley, with a total of 158.5. The top local team — Margaret Hampton, Gerry Leep, Margaret Thomas and Bette Johnson from the Coquille Valley Elks Lodge — finished third overall.
The top six net and gross teams are included in today’s Community Scoreboard.
Four-Man Scramble
Another of the popular events, the Four-Man Scramble at Forest Hills Country Club in Reedsport, is this weekend.
The tournament has a full field of 44 teams. The 176 players will participate in shotgun starts in the morning or afternoon.
Results will be included in next week’s Community Scoreboard.
Forest Hills Golf School
The annual Forest Hills Junior Golf School will be held June 17-20 at Forest Hills Country Club.
