Thirty-six women golfers, some of best in The Villages, have competed the past four weeks in the Traditions Invitational. There were four teams, each with eight players, whose captains were the low handicaps of the tournament. The format of the round robin team tournament was two-person best-ball matches played at gross.
The competition was fierce, no match had over a 2 handicap difference. The first two rounds were played at Palmer Legends with two teams tied for first, but Nancy Markey and her team played steady golf and showed no mercy in the finals at Glenview Country Club.
The members of the winning team are Angela Venditti, Gundrun Gardars, Kathy Fry, Jane Donoghue, Nancy Markey, Peggy Wilson, Vickie Huggins, and Joyce Drugan.
