This past July, Carr Golf hosted 34 father and daughter teams hailing from the U.S., Canada, Bermuda and Ireland. Playing out of New Jersey’s Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club, Tim and Brittany Baxter won the 36-hole net event in the “Better Ball Stableford” format. Bill and Olivia McCloy of Maketewah Country Club (Ohio) won the gross division.
Prizes awarded aren’t limited to on-course play. Lydia and Hugh Barit of Bermuda’s Mid Ocean Club won this year’s award for “Best Dressed” and Ms. Barit also won the social media competition.
“It’s been a joy to watch this tournament grow so significantly over the past 11 years as fathers and daughters play golf together on one of the special places to tee it up in the world,” says Marty Carr, executive chairman of Carr Golf. “This fun, jubilant event is also an ideal way to participate in the flourishing ‘#inviteHER’ social media campaign championing the participation of more and more women into this wonderful game.”
