It was championship weekend at the Creston Golf Club on Aug. 24 and 25, when men, ladies and junior club members all took part to determine the club champions for the 2013 season, with 91 participants in all.

The players enjoyed two days of excellent weather and superb playing conditions for the championship. It was all capped off with a playoff for the men’s club title as Tim Park defeated Randy Sterling with a birdie on the first extra hole. Sterling certainly made things exciting by sinking a 60-yard wedge shot for an eagle three on the par-five 18th hole.

The junior title also needed a playoff to decide the outcome, as Keiran Poznikoff made an eagle to defeat Brayden Czar on the first extra hole, as well.

In the ladies division, Ruthie Hoffman played solid golf to secure an eight-shot victory over the closest competitor.
