Thanks are do again this Quarter for all those that contributed this edition of the Gateway Green. President Don Humphrey has penned his usual President’s Message and a fine article about Ed Eschbacher from MTI. Nice work Don and welcome Ed as a member of the MVGCSA Board of Directors. Tim Gamma has stepped up this month with an article on how our trees and shrubs have fared the last two years with our increasingly hot and dry weather. Thanks a bunch Tim; we appreciate what you do for the MVGCSA. Dr. Lee Miller has a new title for his article and a new picture as well. As Editor, I have allowed these changes because now Lee is locked in to write three articles per year for life. We may need to work on your negotiation skills Lee. John Haguewood, research specialist for Xi Xiong, survived the Lake Event to bring us a nice summary of what is happening at Mizzou. Good stuff John and best of luck filling the shoes of my man Dan Lloyd. Bob Kane from Rolling Hills Golf Course up in Godfrey has some great answers to what is happening with public golf. Bob, insightful answers that certainly shed light on the type of facility you are managing. Finally, Rob Kick brings the gas again with a letter to Santa. Dialed in again Rob, despite your battle with writer’s block, we like the cut of your jib. Each year I rank those most qualified to take over as Editor of the Gateway Green, and Rob, you are now ranked #1. Whenever you are ready you can have this battle axe.

    The Western Amateur Championship Records & Statistics Guide 1899-2017 for te 116t Westrn Amatur, July 30-Aug. 4, 2018 Sunset Ridge County Club, Nortfield, Il. 15t editon compiled by Tim Cronin A Guide to The Guide –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Welcome to the 116th Western Amateur Championship, and the 15th edition of The Western Amateur Records & Statistics Guide, as the championship comes to Sunset Ridge Country Club for the first time. For well over a century, 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. Last year, 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 Guide is in two sections covering 203 pages. Part 1, which is 76 pages, includes a year-by-year summary chart, records, a special chart detailing the 34 players who have played in the Sweet Sixteen in the 62 years since its adoption in 1956 and have won a professional major championship, and a comprehensive report the Sweet Sixteen era through both year-by-year results and a player register.
