The 17th Two Woman Mid-Handicap Championship was contested on August 8th, 2014 at Musket Ridge Golf Club in Myersville, Maryland. It was a perfect golf day and the course was a challenge with its rolling hills and hazards.
The Champions, Karen Wood from Bowie Country Club and Lisa Hadley from South River got off to a good start and played pretty solid golf on the front nine, with all pars and bogeys and one birdie to shoot 39 on the front. They were one under on the back nine, with a birdie on 13 but stumbled on the difficult hole 16, to card a 79 for the win.
The Runners-Up were Soo Ja Chu from Hampshire Greens Golf Course and Chan Hee Chung from Needwood Golf Course. Soo Ja and Chan Hee played solid golf, with nothing worse than a bogey, to card an 81 and take over-all second place.
The winners of the First Flight were Ann Reever and Sandy Naylor from Holly Hills Country Club, with a score of 84. Reever and Naylor won on a match of cards, with a sizzling, one over, 37 on the back nine. Taking second were Ann Nichols and Monica Hamrick from Kenwood Country Club, also with an 84.
The Second Flight winners were Oksun Kim and Jung Im Choi from Turf Valley Golf Course, scoring an 82. The runners-up were Dehelia Rebholz from Laytonsville Golf Course and Imee Stackhouse from Rattlewood Golf Course with an 85.
The Third Flight winners were also determined by a match of cards, with both teams shooting an 83. Winning with a back nine, two over, 38 was Susan Darnley and Deb Martin from Eisenhower Golf Course. Taking second was Maggie Whall from Argyle Country Club and Sharon Burlas from Norbeck Country Club.
This event will be held at Talbot Country Club in Easton, Maryland next year on August 20th.
