50th NCGA Public Links Net Championship April 27-28 | Spyglass Hill and Poppy Hills


CWAC State Senior Championship May 18-19 | Poppy Hills


Make it two in a row for Rocklin


resident Lynne Cowan. Cowan shot a final-round 1-over


Chardonnay Flight Champion Ken Gosselin


73 to go wire-to-wire and hold off a worthy challenge from 2010 U.S. Senior Amateur winner Mina Hardin to win the California Senior Women’s Amateur Championship by seven strokes at a cold and wet Poppy Hills. Cowan finished with a two-day total of 4-over 148, but had actually been briefly passed by the charging Hardin, who opened the front nine with a 1-under 35. But Rocklin’s Cowan countered with a closing 2-under 34 to win going away. The win was Cowan’s sixth


CWAC title. Along with defending her 2014 CWAC Senior Champi- onship, Cowan is also a four-time winner of the California Women’s Amateur Championship. “It’s still special,” said Cowan, a


golf equipment sales rep. “Each win means a lot to me.” Cowan opened the back nine with


Merlot Flight Champion Manuel Herrera


four straight pars before pouring in birdies on the par-4 No. 14 and par-5 No. 16. Cowan’s rounds of 75 and 73


were the two best of the champion- ship. She entered the final round tied with MaryKay Zordani, who fin- ished fifth after shooting 75-85–160. Watsonville’s Juvy Timan was fourth at 159. Hardin’s run stalled with a back-


nine 6-over 42. She shot 78-77–155, which was one better than third-place finisher Stacey Camara of Windsor. “I was a little concerned after the


front-nine. It was enough to make me really pay attention,” Cowan said. “At the same time, I also knew we were going to the back, where there are more birdie chances.” Record seven-time Senior CWAC winner Marianne Towersey of Pebble Beach shot 78-83–161 to tie for sixth.


Super Senior Menlo Park’s Arleene Wilkolaski also added to her CWAC trophy collection. Wilkolaski won the Super Senior


Championship (age 70 and over) title, finishing at 178 following a final round 86. Wilkolaski won the Senior title in 1994.
