Fore! The Lynbrook Golf Club is inviting amateur golfers to join the Ace the Hole Challenge on Saturday, July 27, as the club tees off for the second year of its largest annual fundraising tournament.
The upcoming challenge includes a breakfast buffet and supper, is limited to 36 teams, and — aside from generous prizes available to be won — proceeds will be used in the ongoing upgrade planned for hole three at the course.
The tournament offers an exceptional opportunity for amateur golfers over the age of 18 to have a little fun. The tournament also provides an “opportunity for large cash prizes if they’re lucky enough to get a hole in one,” added Bev Arnold, the Lynbrook ladies’ club captain.
The Par 3 tournament is only entering its second year, but Arnold said the prizes have increased in value and this year’s tournament will include a golf-based horse race event.
The unique twist of the Par 3 tournament is that scoring will be slightly modified so that all 18 holes at the Lynbrook Golf Course become Par 3.
All holes in one — including holes one through 18 but excluding hole seven — will receive a prize of $6,000 up to $25,000, and players who come closest to the pin will receive $200 per hole. The prize values for a hole in one will be clearly posted as per the difficulty of the course and hole seven will make the only exception, with a prize package valued at around $2,500 available to be won.
The event will also include a 50/50 draw and a post-tournament horse race with 20 spots available.
The horse race takes place by 20 golfers playing a round with the highest scoring player dropping out on each separate hole. Once the group is narrowed down to only one player, that player is declared the winner.
Supper will follow and is included in the ticket price. The meal includes roast beef on a bun with an assortment of salads. The earlier breakfast buffet isn’t included in the ticket price and is available for $10.99.
“It’s an opportunity to have some fun, meet some new people, and make friends,” Arnold said. Plus, she added, it’s a “great way to spend a Saturday (and) we’re supposed to have great weather.”
Each team will be organized as a four person team scramble. There are currently 23 teams registered for the tournament and 13 spots now remain open.
