of Ravinia Green

Linda defeated four strong players to become this year’s Champion. On Tuesday, she defeated Geri Mclauchlan of Medinah. On Wednesday she played successive matches to defeat Ann Saladino of La Grange and Monica Coleman of Twin Orchard. Her final match was played on Thursday against Ellen Rehm of Butterfield.

The entire field played in drenching rain on Tuesday and distinguished themselves with positive attitudes. This was rewarded on Wednesday with glorious golf weather that continued through Thursday.
