Hey Lucy,
We miss you!
Great time yesterday in our golf community with nearly every-Singletary-one of us cheering for these young ladies as they went three extra holes to determine a club champion. Congrats Ally Black for sinking J Rahm-like putt on the 39th hole for the win, and to Caroline Dasch, Meghan Meserole, and Katherine Jones for competing with such great energy (in 100+ degree heat), exemplary sportsmanship, and record-setting pace-of-play!
Congrats also to Sean-Karl Dobson for his one-shot victory in the boy's championship, launching him into the Junior Players this week at TPC Sawgrass. Westlake High School golf with three boys competing in Junior Players this week, which is amazing! And on the girls' side, three Westlake golfers competed in US Women's Am a few weeks ago! Remarkable stuff and speaks volumes about Dale Morgan, Ann Marie Gildersleeve, and many other junior golf enthusiasts and instructors in Austin. How proud would Harvey be?
And what does the future hold? Well, let's just hope young Keenan (obviously a fine player) negotiated about 17 strokes vs. young Henry before they teed off in the Boys (9-10) Flight! That 26 on the back nine yesterday has to be a club record? Can I be Henry's agent?
Lastly, I had to dig up a picture from the archives . . .
Love those girls,
Dad
P.S. Emily used to think the golf expression, "All bets are won or lost on the first tee," meant whoever won the first hole was going to win the bet. Not exactly the meaning, but it works for Make it a Great Monday. Get off to a good start and the rest of the week is piece of cake!
