'Z' Becomes 1st Solo Women Event Champion on the ASGTour!

Sarah 'Z' Zwartynski from Allen, TX cleared the field by four strokes on the Kingwood Forest course and became the first female champion on the All Star Golf Tour. Sarah posted an even par gross score and with her two handicap, a net two under par 70 was more than enough to win. Sarah has tied for first before but this time there would be no sharing of the winner's check!

Posting one bogie and one birdie on the front nine and sixteen pars in her consistent performance gave her a payday of $1,281.95 in a field of just eight players! Her first place prize of $1,000 included $250 of Entry Bonus money simply for entering by the bonus deadline showing it pays to sign up on time!!

Runners-up David Gray, Trophy Club, TX ( (8 hcp) and Jim Kolmeier, New Braunfels, (11 hcp), finished at two over par net 74 and split second place money.

Sarah extended her money list lead with $3,772.30 in total winnings through the first four events. That's an average of nearly $1,000 per event. Last position in the money is averaging $192.55, a near 100% return of entry.

Due to a rained out Kingwood MGA event rescheduled for the same day as our ASGT event, our local Kingwood members were not able to participate. Otherwise the field would have pushed close to twenty players, a very encouraging sign for our S. Texas District program.

Now that we are into some decent weather, the modifications to the handicapping system are bearing the intended fruit with scores in the money now falling between net two under and two over par. We expect those averages to increase as the season progresses.

Don't forget the Entry Bonus deadline for the next event at Stonebridge Ranch CC in McKinney, TX is 0001am on Monday, April 2nd. Don't miss out on a $1,000 guaranteed first place prize (including $250 entry bonus) and the chance to play one of the best courses in Texas on the Dye course at Stonebridge Ranch.

Congratulations to Sarah on her first solo professional win and thanks to all our N. Texas District players for their support and participation.
