2023 NJSGA Championship Season Gets Underway; Zychowski Brothers Medal in 91st Four-Ball Qualifying at Galloping Hill
KENILWORTH, N.J. – The 2023 New Jersey State Golf Association season is officially underway as the first of four Four-Ball qualifiers has wrapped up at Galloping Hill Golf Course on Thursday.
On a mild and breezy April day, four pairs advanced to the 91st Four-Ball Championship, which will run from May 16-18 at Hamilton Farm Golf Club.
2020 Four-Ball finalists and brothers Steve and Brian Zychowski earned medalist honors, touting a 6-under par 65.
“It was great to have Brian’s steady play today,” Steve commented. “He was definitely the guy through through and I just knew he was going to play well.”
Despite a bogey on their card, the sibling duo from Mendham Golf & Tennis Club managed to tally seven birdies.
“I was very volatile today. A lot of birdies, a lot of not birdies," Steve joked. “I think that helped, but it also helps to have someone like Brian who was in play, hitting greens, hitting it pretty close, and then I could get aggressive.”
Alex Smith and Pete Berman, Shawn Dyckman and KT McSorley and David McGrath and Greg O’Connor also qualified, advancing to the first major championship of the season.
Pairings and starting times for the remaining three qualifiers are posted.
