The Ga’ash Golf Club got back to its core values this week and reemphasized the importance of giving to the community by hosting a charity tournament where all funds went to “Kfar Idud,” a unique housing complex designed for adults with various learning disabilities.
The event was held on Tuesday under spectacular conditions which saw a morning field of 52 golfers and a packed afternoon field of 56 golfers, with staggered tee-offs at 7:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., respectively. The two-ball team scramble format was of a very high caliber and played in a wonderful sporting atmosphere.
The morning round was won by the pairing of Moshe Nesis and OdedMeirov, who finished on 64 net strokes. Gil Bianco and AlbertKatzenelenbogen finished a close second, on 65, with Mario Blech andDanny Golan grabbing third place, also with 65.
The afternoon session was won by Steve Taylor and Mark Joffe on 61 netstrokes, followed by Danny Hurwitz and Atzi Peters on 62, and ZalmanShachaf & Eliezer Argov in third, coming in on 66 strokes.
