Welcome to the Great Lakes Senior Golf Association

Challenging Conditions at Moss Ridge

The interesting thing about this week at Moss Ridge GC was the number of golfers entered to play and the number of golfers that actually played. Wednesday was marked by extremely dangerous temperatures, with heat indexes over 100. Thursday had the smoke from Canadian forest fires resulting in air quality index considered very dangerous. Even with these conditions we had 109 golfers play on Wednesday and 110 on Thursday.

The difficult conditions did not affect the scoring. Both days, the field average in flight “A” was less than 69 with a score of 67, or less, required to win prize money. The low score was 64 both days. In flight “B” the field average in was slightly over par 72 with a score of 70, or lower, required to win prize money. In flight “C”, a sub-par score was required to claim first place. In flight “D”, the field average was lower than the field average score in that flight earlier this year in the regular division’s visit to Moss Ridge.

But the shot by Greg Cappiello on Wednesday was hotter than the weather. It was a hole-in-one on hole #16. Great shot Greg!

The results from Moss Ridge are now available.
