The
FSGA and FWSGA Winning Course Rating Teams |
For the second straight
year, the Florida State Golf Association (FSGA) Course
Rating team tied for first at the USGA Eastern National
Calibration at Orange Lake Resort and Country Club in
Orlando. FSGA shared first place honors in the men's
division with Georgia with an overall grade of 98. The
Florida Women's State Golf Association (FWSGA) team led
the women’s division scoring a 96.
The FSGA team included
Brian Robideau, Ron Audi, Herb Funk
and Jim Sweet. Brian Robideau was also a member of
last year's winning team. The FWSGA team
consisted of Pat Case, Billie Sue Furnas,
Carol George and Mary Ann Riccio. The
first place finish by the women bettered their second
place finish last year.
The scoring method for
a USGA Course Rating Calibration weights the on-course
calibration as 50% of the total score and the average of
the individual written test score and the team written
test score carries the other 50% of the total score.
Both teams scored 100 on the written exam while the FSGA
scored 96 in the on-course calibration and the FWSGA
scored 92 in the on-course calibration.
Congratulations to both teams for their outstanding
efforts and success at the 2007 USGA Eastern National
Calibration. If you ever have a question about course
rating, please call the FSGA
