SGA returns this Sunday
It’s time to scrub the spikes and rub the clubs as the Saipan Golf Association searches for its May Ace of the Month this weekend at Mother Nature’s most temperamental courses.
The competition is sure to be stiff as SGA secretary Larry Guerrero said that there will be limited availability when some of the island’s top strikers tee it up this Sunday, May 21, at Coral Ocean Point Resort to vie for the low score and the SGA’s top billing on Saipan’s southernmost course.
Last month, John “Nunni” Cruz emerged from a field of top strikers and slicers to take the SGA’s April Ace of the Month honors with a 44 on the front nine and a 43 on the back to finish with a gross score of 87 before taking advantage of a 26 handicap for a net score of 61.
To date, Ed Manibusan (January), Matt Chargualaf (February), and Rick Kautz (March) have joined Cruz as the only SGA members who have already shored up their slots in the yearend classic, the Ace of Aces, this December.
In addition to all of the bragging rights, the SGA is offering a post outing awards banquet but in order to join the SGA’s best this weekend, Guerrero recommends that all golfers call either him or SGA president Ben Aldan to confirm their slots. All who make it in must be present for the 7:30am show time for the announcement of the pairings and briefing, as well as for the 8am go time.
For more information about the SGA or any of its events, contact Aldan by calling 234-3176, or Guerrero at 256-1052.
