Golf News: President's Cup 2021

By Jerry Gentile

This past weekend’s weather was full of surprises. Saturday morning was a very hot, sticky, humid, uncomfortable one. Sunday morning was overcast, a little cooler and more manageable. Neither day bothered the eventual winners of the prestigious President’s Cup for 2021.

Ed Haliasz and Richard Glasheen In a stunning comeback victory the team of Ed Haliasz and Richard Glasheen (see photo) defeated Bob Pogoloff and Mel Vizzini,  1 Up.
-
Down by three (3) after nine holes, and down by (2) after fourteen, Haliasz and Glasheen fought back to tie the match on hole 17. Richard Glasheen scored three 4s on holes 16, 17 and 18 (with shots) to secure a 1 Up victory. Ed Haliasz (0 hdcp.) who was giving away several strokes, shot a 37 on the back nine and a total excellent score 77 in the victory. It was truly a two man effort and a great win.

Congratulations to them and Mel and Pogie in a gutsy losing effort.
