  • Adam Scott Voted May Pga Tour Player of the Month Presented by Avis
    ADAM SCOTT VOTED MAY PGA TOUR PLAYER OF THE MONTH PRESENTED BY AVIS PARSIPPANY, N.J. and PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla., June 10, 2014 — PGA TOUR and Avis Car Rental announced today that Adam Scott has been voted the May PGA TOUR Player of the Month presented by Avis. As the official rental car company of the PGA TOUR, Avis will make a $50,000 contribution to the Adam Scott Foundation. In a fan decision on PGATOUR.COM, Scott outpolled Martin Kaymer, Brendan Todd and J.B. Holmes. The four were nominated by a panel of national media for their performances during the month of May. Scott, who moved to No. 1 in the Official World Golf Ranking the week of the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial in May, went on to win the Crowne Plaza event in a playoff over Jason Dufner. Scott’s 11th career PGA TOUR title completed the “Texas Slam” for the Australian, becoming the first player to win all four PGA TOUR events conducted in the Lone Star State – the Valero Texas Open, Shell Houston Open, HP Byron Nelson Championship and the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial. This is the second time Scott has been named PGA TOUR Player of the Month since Avis teamed up with the PGA TOUR to enhance the “Player of the Month” award program in 2012. He was also named PGA TOUR Player of the Month in April 2013 following his Masters Tournament victory. “Adam Scott’s dedication, performance and achievement on the golf course in May is a great example of what the PGA TOUR Player of the Month award is all about,” said Jeannine Haas, chief marketing officer, North America, Avis Budget Group.

  • The Country Club
    VOLUME 16 NO 7 AUGUST, 2021 (Edited by Ralph Sadler - email; [email protected]) FROM THE BOARD The Board now has approval from Council accepting our proposal to pay Council $300 of the $400 increase in full golf membership subscriptions. The other change is that of our competition fee of $15.00 per 18 holes, $5.00 now goes to Council with the balance coming into the Club. These changes substantially decrease Council’s deficit in running the course. Please note that the competition fee of $8.00 for 9 holes comes to the Club. We understand that the Council is continuing to negotiate with the Northbridge Pro Shop team to become the alternate operator of the golf course. We have no further updates on the timing of the building of the Sports Complex. However, we are delighted that the community consultation process acknowledged the importance of golf in relation to the green space. The latest Covid restrictions have seen an increase in our golf membership. To ensure that current members can get a game, the “3-month trial” membership has been suspended and visitors are not permitted to play in competition rounds. Thank you to the members who have paid their fees. Please be advised that all fees must be paid by 15th August to play in competitions. The Club has submitted applications for government grants available due to the lockdown. The outcome and value is yet to be confirmed. We also advise that Sharon Johnson has stepped in as Treasurer until the AGM, which is scheduled for October.
