COE MAKES MARY’S GIRLS PROUD oanna Coe is proof positive Mary’s Girls is making a difference. The four-year program grant recipient (2004-07) recently completed her first year at Rollins J College as the NCAA Division II Women’s Golf National Champion. Coe established a new Division II scoring record at 1-under-par 287 to shatter the old mark by five strokes. Her victory also helped Rollins to its 12th team title. “[Mary’s Girl’s] was a great resource for my family and I,” said Coe, 18, of Mays Landing, N.J. “Tournaments are expensive when you factor in the entry fee, plane ride, hotel and food, and I have two older sisters. Mary’s Girls really helped me to be able to compete. Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to get the exposure to college coaches through the high level junior tournaments.” Coe, a graduate of Oakcrest High School, is Rollins fourth women’s golfing champion. “I had never broken 70 or shot under par in a tournament before nationals,” said Coe. “I broke a lot of personal goals that week.” Larry Ballen, a member of Bala Golf Club, established Mary’s Girls in 2004. Mr. Ballen sought to honor his late wife, Mary, an avid golfer and supporter of women’s team golf, and approached the Golf Association of Philadelphia for counsel. What evolved was Mary’s Girls, a development platform for committed young urban female golfers who are not members of a private club. The program provides qualified applicants with financial assis- tance to help them excel at the game with the ultimate goal of winning college golf scholarships.

The new course was ready for play in 1938. It was dubbed the Nemours Course, while the original layout was named the DuPont Course. More changes were at hand, however. The DuPont Company was planning to expand its experimental test station, which was adja- cent to the DuPont Course. The golf holes were in the line of fire. In 1946, the club purchased a large plot of farmland directly across from the Nemours Course and Tull was soon at work again, designing what would be a new DuPont Course. At the same time, construction on a new clubhouse began. The new golf course, along with the new clubhouse, was for- mally dedicated on May 28, 1949. This is the course that visitors to the club are perhaps most familiar with. It originally played to 6,700 yards from the tips, with a par of 72.

Kingston’s Pieczynski takes weather shortened Open; McDermott finishes as low amateur

BUCKINGHAM, Pa. – Intense lightning and rain forced Greg Pieczynski to wait 90 minutes before completing his one and only round of the weather shortened Open Championship on July 23 at a scenic and chal- lenging Lookaway Golf Club (par 72, 6,901 yards). Pieczynski stood at a tournament best 5-under par with his ball in the right rough on the final hole when players were forced to leave the golf course. When play resumed, the 25-year-old Kingston, Pa., resident, didn’t miss a beat, smacking a smart 8-iron and stroking two solid putts for a par to register the greatest victory of his short professional career. Pieczynski’s 5-under 67 put him two shots clear of the field and sent the second-year pro home with the $8,000 winner’s share. Michael McDermott of Merion Golf Club, the reigning Amateur Champion and bad drive and, then, after waiting an hour and a half, knocked his 8-iron William Hyndman, III Player of the Year, and Dave McNabb, the head from 168 yards on No. 18 (par 4, 434 yards) to the center of the green. professional at Cavaliers Country Club, tied for second at 3-under par. “I didn’t take anything for granted.

J. Wood Platt (right) in the Platt, by now a member of Whitemarsh Valley Country Club, won 1955 U.S. Senior Amateur additional Philadelphia Amateur titles in 1922, 1924 and 1928 and reached the final on two other occasions before losing, once to his brother Zimmer in 1926. He won the Patterson Cup in 1926 and 1928 and finished second in the Philadelphia Open in 1921. He also won the Silver Cross four times between 1922 and 1928. When he traveled to England to play in the British Amateur in 1921, Platt was part of an American team that competed against their peers from Britain in a challenge match that was a precursor to the Walker Cup. In 1922, he defeated Tommy Armour in the final of the Nassau Country Club Invitational, one of the country’s most prestigious amateur events at the time. During the 1930s, Platt remained one of the top players in the area. He captured the Silver Cross in 1931 and the Pennsylvania Amateur in 1935 before winning his fifth Philadelphia Amateur in 1938. That year marked the start of a three-year period when the Amateur was contested at stroke play. Platt was perhaps the most vocal advocate for the change, and observers, then and now, have maintained that he pushed for it to give himself an advantage. Platt also won his third Patterson Cup that year as well as the Silver Cross. The following year he won his sixth Amateur and seventh and last Silver Cross. In 1941, he won the Patterson Cup for the fourth and last time. In 1942, the Philadelphia Amateur was restored to a match-play format, and Platt, now 44 years old, reached the semifinals at his home course of Whitemarsh Valley. That year the semifinals and final were played on the same day in sizzling temperatures.

His last great moment as a competitor came in 1955, when he headed to Belle Meade Country Club near Nashville, Tenn., to compete in the first U.S. Senior Amateur Championship. After 18 holes of qualifying and four matches, Platt defeated George Studinger, 5&4, in the 18-hole final to finally claim a USGA national championship at age 57.

Hyndman may have enjoyed nothing more than his chance to share his “I don’t know if I ever beat him in any of our nine-hole matches,” passion for the game with others. Sullivan said. “We played for a soda. He never let me give him the soda, but I don’t know that he ever had to buy me one.” Here was a man who had achieved nearly everything in amateur golf, yet received no greater pleasure than seeing others develop the love for golf as he had decades before. “He always made sure to tell you how wonderful the game of golf had been to him,” said fellow Huntingdon Valley member Dave Brookreson, whose personal résumé includes Golf Association of Philadelphia Amateur, Middle-Amateur, Joseph H. Patterson Cup, Silver Cross and Senior Silver Cross championships. “He gave back so much to the game. You’d see him out there playing with anyone, and he always offered encouragement. “He’d never give a lesson, but if you asked him a question, he’d offer a positive comment. Those talks were a tremendous influence on me.” For Hyndman, the turning point in his career may have come at the final of the 1955 U.S. Amateur, when he was defeated, 9&8, by Copyright Unknown/Courtesy USGA Archives.
