MULLET BAY: Jan Peter Holtland, Andy Holmes and Keith Graham took top honors during the third annual Steve Mix Memorial golf tournament at the Mullet Bay Golf Course. This event organized by the St. Maarten Golf Association SMGA drew 12 teams, each with 3 golfers to the course.
The St. Maarten Golf Association hosted the event in memory of Steve Mix, an avid golfer. The 12 teams fighting a very close and competitive battle. Between the winners and the team that came in last, was only a 11-stroke difference.
The winners shot 65 stroke net score. Buzz Adamski, Tini Tinitali and Geoff Heilman were second just one stroke higher. Similarly, third place was taken by Marie and Chris Gibbons and James Park, both who came in with the same 66 net score, but with an even lower average handicap for their team.
Steve Mix was remembered, in a similar style in which he would sometimes play golf, as all contestants had to play their last hole barefoot while putting on the green with their drivers. Steve was also a past president of the SMGA.
