The final CWGA championship of 2017 features 32 teams from Colorado-based clubs, including several led by past CWGA champions and even a player who recently made a splash at a USGA national tournament.
The CWGA Club Team Championship will be held for the 14th time on Monday (Sept. 25), with The Ranch Country Club in Westminster hosting the tournament this time around.
The event features an ABCD stroke play format in which the scores of four players of significantly varying abilities are added up for a gross aggregate team total.
A team from Patty Jewett Golf Course in Colorado Springs will be back to defend its title. Lita Van Cleave will return after playing on the Patty Jewett foursome that won the title by nine strokes last year.
Other former champions in the field including South Suburban (2014 and ’15), Blackstone/Black Bear (2013), Saddle Rock (2011), Glenmoor (2010), The Meadows (2009), The Ranch (2008) and Heather Ridge, winner of the inaugural championship in 2004.
Among the individuals scheduled to compete who have won individual CWGA championships are Laurie Steenrod (Saddle Rock) and Mary Doyen (Foothills). Kelly Martin from Fox Hollow recently teamed up with Deb Hughes to win the CWGA Dunham Chapman title. And Sue Hartwell from West Woods earlier this month made it to the round of 32 at the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur.
