Here at The Woodford Club friends and competition go hand and hand. Our annual Member-Guest Tournament brought out some iconic duos and fun pairs. With matching outfits and bright smiles, the two day tournament was a blast!
For Brandon Gould, our Flight #1 winner, he had a great time out on the course.
“My favorite part of the event is being able to play the first day with my wife and her partner as well. The four of us have a great time together on the course,” Gould said. “The formats of the event really make it a lot of fun as well, and we get to play a little different game than normal.”
Gould has been a member off and on since he was 10-years-old.
“I grew up on the golf course…” Gould said. “It has always been home to me!”
Flight #2 winner, Matt Lawrence has been a member on and off for about 22 years.
“I played high school golf here at Woodford,” Lawrence said.
Lawrence also liked the different formats included in this tournament.
“ I really enjoy the different formats and being able to be around other members and guests at the Calcutta auction,” Lawrence said. “It’s a great time and dinner was wonderful.”
These winners didn’t win this all on their own. They both boasted about their partners, who helped them out on the course.
Matt Lawrence partnered up with JT O’Reel. The pair brought a lot of fun energy to the green. Lawrence said he’s known O’Reel since he was a kid on the 2012 State Championship Baseball team as the starting shortstop.
“We go well together with his length on the course and my short game,” Lawrence said.
Gould and his partner, Nick Walsh, also enjoyed their time on the course. They’ve known each other for about 15 years and played the last three to four years in this tournament together.
“My partner for the Member-Guest married my wife’s college roommate shortly after school,” Gould added. “We play well together as a team…focusing on the fun first and the good golf will come later.”
At The Woodford Club, we strive to make every event fun and unique. Thank you to everyone who was involved!
