Ironmen Club Championship results

By Bill Travis and Jerry Juracich

The Ironmen are in morning play, gathering every Thursday morning at 10 a.m. with a shotgun start, sweeps, birdie pool, and closest to the pin.

Thursday, September 19, 2024, was again sunny and warm. Another great day for some golf.

Thursday was also the third and final round of the Ironmen Club Championship tournament. Check out the final results below.

Twelve Ironmen played. Hiei Takazawa won Third Place with a net 28; Sang Nam won Second Place with a net 26; and Jerry Juracich and Jim White tied for First Place with net 25s.

There were two Birdies today: one by Larry Dorsey on hole 9; and the other by Jerry Juracich on hole 7.

Rich James won Closest to the Flag on hole 5 at 5 feet, 7 inches.

Sang Nam won Low Gross with a 29.

Jerry Juracich with a first place finish and a birdie, and Sang Nam with second place finish and low gross, tied for Golfer of the Day honors. Way to go, guys.

A reminder: If every Ironman at every game would take the time to fill in all divots and green damage noticed during each week’s game, we would be making a big contribution toward maintaining our own course!

The Ironmen 9 hole, par 3 group would love to add new members. We are a very sociable group, and play basically pressure-free golf. And the first round is on us. Just call Jerry Juracich at 408-440-8283. You can also visit our website at http://ironmen.vgcc.club

Deep Thoughts:

“I work with a number of cyclists.They are great athletes; they are great aerobic athletes. If you ask them to hit a baseball or golf ball, they can’t do that.” – Eric Heiden, five-time Olympic speed skating champion
