The 2017 Two Woman Mid-Handicap Team Championship was played at Crofton Country Club on July 31st. For the first time, the MSGA-WD sponsored two tournaments back to back on the same day: the first tournament was the Two Woman Team Championship, and the second tournament was the Two Woman Mid-Handicap Championship.
46 players came to play in the Two Woman Mid-Handicap Team Championship tournament. The feedback from the players included an appreciation for the format, the golf course, the pace of play, and the camaraderie. Quite a few players indicated this was their first MSGA-WD venue and said they would return to play this tournament again next year.
The champions were Diane Crowley of Oak Creek GC and Maggie Whall of Argyle scoring an impressive gross score of 77. Equally impressive and tying the score at 77 was the team from Northwest GC, Chan Chung and Hosang Yi. In a one hole, play off, Diane and Maggie won the Championship and Chan and Hosang placed Championship Runner-up.
