MountainView/Preserve Lady Niners (MPLN) is proud to celebrate Vice President Linda Rouse as their 2017 Club Champion. Linda shot a 92 that was the low gross score of the entire field; a great achievement.
Seventeen MPLN members played in the 2017 Club Championship tournament that was promoted by Gold Level Sponsor, Charles Schwab. The two-day event was held on April 10 on the MountainView front nine and on April 11 on the Preserve front nine courses. The field was divided into three equal flights according to handicap, with the winners being the low gross score in each flight. The event determined the overall low gross winner of the entire field.
Golf Pros Mike Jahaske and Ken Steinke were on hand to tally the scores and announce all of the winners in each of the flights.
Flight One: 1st place Diane Mazzarella with a score of 100; 2nd place Susan Elliott with a score of 101; 3rd place Becky Fisher with a score of 102
Flight Two: 1st place Linda Miles with a score of 98; 2nd place Deborah Bunker with a score of 100; 3rd place Karen Koch with a score of 101

A perfect way to end this year’s event.
