Discovery Bay Women’s Golf Club tees off on ‘Blind Nines'

Posted

Eight ladies with the Discovery Bay Women’s Club rode out to the course Thursday for a game of “Blind Nines.”

The way “Blind Nines” works is that participants play a normal round of 18 holes, although only nine of the 18 holes are counted for final scores. The big catch is that the participating golfers are unaware of which holes are counted into the final tally until the game has concluded.

Enjoying the warm, sunny day in contrast to recent rainy weather, the club members played “Blind Nines” with Barb Aldrich and Marianne Ott tied for first place at the end.

Cindy Westwood took the bronze and Jodie Stone ended in fourth.

Pat Burns, who celebrated her 103rd birthday, played with her fellow club members and close friends, later celebrating with ice cream and cake at her home on Marrowstone Island.

Two Discovery Bay teams teed it up for their first Washington Golf Net Four-Ball Match on Thursday morning. as well. 

Wanda Synnestvedt and Jane Peoples won their match against opponents Eileen Stretch and Cindy Phillips. 

Two other teams from Discovery Bay will also compete in the spring-and-summer tournament; Cindy Westwood and Jodie Stone, as well as Cindy Breed and Jane Guiltinan.
