PORT TOWNSEND — Jane Peoples and Dee Sweeney made birdies after spectacular near misses during the Discovery Bay Women’s Golf Club’s weekly play last Thursday, but it wasn’t enough for the top spot.
Cindy Westwood of Discovery Bay took top honors both in low putts (29) and the lowest net score in a game of Better Nine (31). Cindy Breed and Sherilyn Uuland tied for second.
Across town at Port Townsend Golf Club, the ladies played Sandbagger or Low Net.
Vicki Young took first place with a net 31, four strokes under par.
In a close second-place tie with 33 were Barb Aldrich and Katherine Buchanan.
Later this month, both ladies’ clubs will honor their members who have died with a Memorial Scramble hosted at the Port Townsend club followed by a luncheon at the course restaurant.
