The 111Th Met Amateur Championship The 111th Met Amateur Championship The Stanwich Club Greenwich, Conn, August 1 - 4, 2013 MET AMATEUR AREA’S BEST READY TO TAKE ON STANWICH The MGA’s oldest and most coveted amateur championship returns on August 1-4 when 60 of the Met Area’s strongest players will compete in the 111th Met Amateur at The Stanwich Club in Green- wich, Conn. The Met Am is one of the most respected and his- toric regional amateur championships in the coun- try, rivaling only the U.S. Amateur and Western Amateur in terms of number of competitions. First played in 1899, the championship boasts past win- ners like Walter Travis, Dick Siderowf, Jerry Cour- Sam Bernstein ville Sr. (for which the MGA Player of the Year Award is named), George Zahringer III and Johnson Wagner. The event returns to Stanwich for the third time and first since 2004 (won by PGA Tour player Andrew Svoboda). The impeccably conditioned course will play to a par- 72 of 7,133 yards and dons arguably the fastest and most challenging greens in the Met Area. Players must survive 36-hole stroke play qualifying and a 16-man match play bracket in order to claim the trophy. Last year’s winner Ryan McCormick of Suburban will attempt to defend his title, something that hasn’t been done since PGA Tour pro Johnson Wagner accomplished the feat in 2001 and 2002. “There was a point in every match last year where I felt the tide turned in my di- rection,” McCormick recalls. “Every match was a tough one and I had to play my best to win it. I am honored to be on the same trophy as guys like Johnson Wagner, Andrew Svoboda, Jim McGovern, and with local legends Jerry Courville and George Zahringer.” McCormick’s brilliant performance at Hollywood was nearly duplicated two weeks later, as he came close to winning the Met Open (finished T2) at Plainfield. While maintaining a strong national competitive schedule this summer, McCormick said he’s ready to get back to the Met Area. “It’s been fun traveling this summer but I am definitely excited to be playing from home this week,” he added. www.mgagolf.org After finishing as a runner-up in 2011 to Mike Miller, Sam Bernstein of Century is seeking a place in MGA lore. The Yale junior tied for third at the Ike and fin- ished alone in third at the CSGA Palmer Cup. Defeating Bernstein in match play during last year’s Met Am was back-to-back Ike runner-up Max Buckley of Westches- ter. The 23-year-old is playing some of his best golf as of late, already amassing four wins, his most recent coming at the Arocla Cup. Winged Foot’s Colin McDade has to be on everyone’s radar as well. The Richmond University golfer became the first player since 1962 to win the Westchester Ama- teur and Open in the same year. Other regional amateur champions in the field include Matt Lowe of Colonial Springs, who captured the Long Island Am, and Mi- Max Buckley chael Stamberger of Spring Lake, who won the NJSGA Amateur (he also won the Met Amateur in 2003). Columbia University sophomore Harrison Shih of Alpine is hoping to make more noise at Stanwich this year, following his stellar semifinal finish in 2012. And don’t count out last year’s runner-up Matt Mattare of Bethpage. Mattare set the record for the lowest 18-hole round under par with his second round 7-under 64. Other players to watch for are 2012 NJSGA Mid-Amateur Champion Brian Komline of Black Oak, who was last year’s 36-hole stroke play medalist; Pat Wilson of Pan- ther Valley, who finished T7 at the Ike and was runner-up at the NYC Am; Dylan Crowley of Glen Cove, who finished second at the Long Island Open; 2012 MGA Mid-Am winner Mark Henderson of Saint Andrew’s; and 2012 Met Junior champion Scott Kim of MGA eClub – N.J. The field will also include 5-time Met Am winner George Zahringer III of Deepdale (’82, ’84, ’85, ’86, ’87). Zahringer is looking for his first win since his 2007 Ike Championship victory. With past champions and rising stars in the field, the 111th Met Amateur will bring exciting competition to Stanwich.

  • The Sport of Prince's Laddie Lucas Reflections of a Golfer
    Born in the club house at the famous Prince's Golf Club, Sandwich, of which his father was the co-founder, Laddie Lucas was later to become a highly distinguished fighter pilot in the Royal Air Force during the second World War and a Member of Parliament. He also became a remarkably fine golfer and after captaining Cambridge and England he led Great Britain in the Walker Cup against the USA. In this unashamedly nostalgic book, the author describes his hobby of a lifetime - fifty years of pleasurable involvement in golf. He has been a friend or acquaintance of many of the great amateurs and pro­ fessionals of the period from Vardon, Ouimet and Ray to Henry Cotton and Jack Nicklaus. His perceptive pen portraits build up to form a delightful and wide­ ranging survey of golf since the First World War. Immersed in the game from such an early age - his nursery was the pro's shop - Laddie Lucas has not only an instinct for the game but a flair for assessing and expressing the qualities and technical skills of golfers he has observed. His analyses of some of the great golfers are particularly intriguing. In his concern for its expanding future, the author sets out new ways for the develop­ ment of golf as a less exclusive sport - with John Jacobs he has devoted much time over the years to the means of teaching young golfers and, as a member of the Sports Council, to widening the appeal of the game. Laddie Lucas, trained as a journalist, has picked out the features of a golfing lifetime from the standpoint of player, critic and administrator.

  • In the Right Direction How a Senior Knows New USGA Executive
    In the Right Direction New USGA Executive After several unsuccessful attempts to play over a pond, a hapless golfer finally took a divot which flew over, leaving the ball behind. His caddie remarked: "That's better, sir. You got a bit of something over!" How A Senior Knows Miss Margaret Curtis, of Boston, who has never made any bones about the fact that she is 74 years old, got to talking about senior golf and senior golfers the other day and suddenly dipped into her handbag and produced the following, which she read with zest and feeling which only one in her seventies could apply to the subject: How do I know my youth has been spent?

Golf, the Flag, and the 1917 Western Amateur By Stephen R. Lowe Within hours of the horrifying events of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, President Bush told the nation that it had just entered its first war of the new century. For days afterward, little else seemed to matter. Our sports-crazed nation approved the cancellation of professional team schedules through the following weekend. The PGA Tour cancelled its event as well, and the long-anticipated Ryder Cup matches, where the European squad looked to settle their Brookline beef at the Belfry, became another quick casualty. Those early cancellations of sports events were easy calls. The following week, though, baseball, football, golf, and everything else American began again, if sometimes awkwardly. The role of sports in times so serious as war has always been tricky. When is it okay to play? As Americans fight the first war of a new century, golf fans may find some helpful perspective in the first war of the last one.

  • Te Western Amateur Championship
    Te Western Amateur Championship Records & Statistics Guide 1899-2020 for te 119t Westrn Amatur, July 26-31, 2021 Glen View Club Golf, Il. 18t editon compiled by Tim Cronin A Guide to The Guide –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Welcome to the 119th Western Amateur Championship, and the 18th edition of The Western Amateur Records & Statistics Guide, as the championship returns to the Glen View Club for the first time since the 1899 inaugural. Since that first playing, the Western Amateur has provided some of the best competition in golf, amateur or professional. This record book allows reporters covering the Western Am the ability to easily compare current achievements to those of the past. It draws on research conducted by delving into old newspaper files, and by going through the Western Golf Association’s own Western Amateur files, which date to 1949. A few years ago, a major expansion of the Guide presented complete year-by-year records and a player register for 1899 through 1955, the pre-Sweet Sixteen era, for the first time. Details on some courses and field sizes from various years remain to be found, but no other amateur championship has such an in-depth resource. Remaining holes in the listings will continue to be filled in for future editions. The section on records has been revised, and begins on page 8. This includes overall records, including a summary on how the medalist fared, and more records covering the Sweet Sixteen years. The 209-page Guide is in two sections. Part 1 includes a year-by-year summary chart, records, a special chart detailing the 37 players who have played in the Sweet Sixteen in the 63 years since its adoption in 1956 and have won a professional major championship, and a comprehensive report on the Sweet Sixteen era through both year-by-year results and a player register.

  • Playing Hickory Golf While You Piece Together a Vintage Set
    CHAPTER 10 cmyk 4/11/08 5:13 PM Page 165 Chapter Title CHAPTER 10 Questions And Answers About Hickory Golf Q: How much does it cost to get started in hickory golf? A: You can purchase inexpensive hickory clubs for as little as $25 each. Obviously, these are not likely to be of a premium quality and will probably require work to make them playable. At Classic Golf, we offer fully restored Tom Stewart irons for about $150 each with a one-year warranty on the shafts against breakage. Our restored woods are about $250 each for the premium examples. So, a ten-club set with two woods would run $1,700. A 14-club set would be $2,300. This compares favorably with the purchase of a premium modern 14-club set where your irons are $800, your driver is $400, fairway wood $200, two wedges at $125 each, hybrid at $150, and a putter at $200 for a total of $2,000. Q: Can a beginner or high handicap golfer play hickory golf? A: Yes. That is how it was done 100 years ago! It can be an advantage starting golf with clubs that require a more precise swing. Q: Are there reproduction clubs available and are they allowed in hickory tournaments? A: Reproduction clubs are available from Tad Moore, Barry Kerr, and Louisville Golf. Every tournament has its own set of rules. The National Hickory Championship allows reproductions because pre-1900 clubs are so difficult to find and are very expensive. At the present time there are ample supplies of vintage clubs available for play, but this could change with the increasing popularity of hickory golf.
