Up Close in a Class by Himself Winged Foot Head Professional Is the Most Elite Job in Golf, and After 28 Years Tom Nieporte Has Raised the Bar
Up Close In A Class By Himself Winged Foot head professional is the most elite job in golf, and after 28 years Tom Nieporte has raised the bar BY REED RICHARDSON rowing up and playing golf in the suburbs of Cincinnati during the early 1940s, Tom Nieporte might have ap- peared an unlikely candidate to one day end up as head Gprofessional of the storied Winged Foot Golf Club. But, long before most junior golfers have figured out there is a whole world beyond their local course, Nieporte says he was already idolizing the game’s biggest stars and had his Nieporte is as much a part of the Winged Foot fabric as its sights set on the game’s grandest stages, espe- famed clubhouse. cially Winged Foot. JEFF WEINER JEFF 22 THE MET GOLFER JUNE/JULY 2006 WWW.MGAGOLF.ORG disbelief at how he has achieved the dreams of that lanky, wide-eyed, Midwestern teenager. “To think that as a young boy, I watched great players like Wood and Harmon and then, 30 years later, I end up following in their footsteps,” he says, chuckling. “How strange life is.” Though he never won a major like his two predecessors (his best finish was fifth place at the 1964 PGA Championship), by the time Nieporte replaced Harmon at Winged Foot in 1978 – becoming only the fifth head pro in the club’s history – he had earned the utmost respect within golf’s professional ranks. And in this, his 29th and, most likely, final year as head professional at Winged Foot, that same sense of respect and endearment toward Nieporte is clearly evident amongst the club’s members, as well as his former assistants. -

Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway 103Rdaugust 21 - 23, 2018 Wykagyl Country Club History of the Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway
Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway 103rdAugust 21 - 23, 2018 Wykagyl Country Club History of the Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway From its inception in 1905 through the 1940 renewal, the Met Open was considered one of the most prestigious events in golf, won by the likes of Gene Sarazen, Walter Hagen, Johnny Farrell, Tommy Armour, Paul Runyan, Byron Nelson, and Craig Wood, in addition to the brothers Alex and Macdonald Smith (who together captured seven Met Opens, with Alex winning a record four times). The second edition of the championship was hosted and sponsored by Hollywood Golf Club, when George Low won in 1906. After an eight-year hiatus overlapping World War II, the Met Open became more of a regional championship, won by many of the top local club professionals, among them Claude Harmon, Jimmy Wright, Jim Albus, David Glenz, Bobby Heins and Darrell Kestner, not to mention such storied amateurs as Chet Sanok, Jerry Courville Sr., George Zahringer III, Jim McGovern, Johnson Wagner, and Andrew Svoboda. The purse was raised to a record $150,000 in 2007, giving the championship added importance. In 2015 the MGA celebrated a major milestone in marking the championship’s 100th playing, won by Ben Polland at Winged Foot Golf Club. In 2017, The MGA welcomed a new Championship Partner, Callaway Golf. Callaway Golf is the presenting sponsor of the Met Open Championship. Eligibility The competition is open to golfers who are: 1. Past MGA Open Champions. 2. PGA Members in good standing in the Metropolitan and New Jersey PGA Sections. -
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. -

Ridgewood Heritage
Our Ridgewood Heritage Horses & Golf The Golf Course everaux Emmett, was one of the most famous golf course architects at the time. His work includes Garden City CC, Riddell Bay in Bermuda, a number of classic courses in the Northeast, and the most notable, The Congressional Golf Club in Bethesda, MD. On its opening day in 1924, Congressional hosted President Calvin Coolidge, many diplomats, and an estimated 10,000 on-lookers. The estimate for building 18 playable holes was $1,000 a hole. But that total did not include the removal of the stone walls that covered the property like a spider web. Only those that crossed the fairways were slated for removal in the original estimate. The course's condition was a bit rough for the first few years, but as money became available, the stone walls were gradually removed using only crowbars, two horses and a stone boat. It was a job that took many years. Nine holes — those that now comprise the second nine — opened for play in 1921. The other nine holes were completed in 1922. The back nine was played as the first nine until 1924, then changed to the second nine because it was longer by 300 yards and much harder to walk. Members have watched many of golf's greatest stars play the Ridgewood, including Walter Hagen, Joe Kirkwood, Tommy Armour, Henry Ciuci, Johnny Farrell, Ken Green and Mark Calcaveccia. The legendary Gene Sarazen, who owned a home just 10 minutes away, spent many days each year at Ridgewood training for tournament play.
