Par Tee Girls Golf Club (PTG) is a San Francisco Bay Area women’s golf group. Our Club caters to multiple levels of play and has a mix of casual and competitive players. We do request that all potential members have played at least five rounds of 18 holes before considering joining our group. This helps with understanding the pace of play and simple golf etiquette.

From El Presidente:
The end of the season has arrived. It was a fun bunch of outings with a great group of women. Just plain fun with a little bit of pain thrown in. Make sure you read the bottom of the recap for the 2025 in numbers...always amusing.
Group 1: Elise Leung, Meleah Larroca, Orla Petirs. As Orla remembers. As the first group off, we braved the drizzle, armed with optimism, sometimes questionable aim, and plenty of laughter. Elise dominated the course with the lowest gross and closest to the pin. Orla launched the longest drive - then promptly demonstrated that putting is an entirely different sport. Meleah showed great consistency and kept spirits high despite some lost balls. The round ended in sunshine, smiles, and just enough good shots to keep everyone coming back.
Group 2: Debbie Gill, Joy Woo, Kim Richardson, Joanne Wood. Debbie scribes. Debbie scribes because she didn’t play many holes due to her many maladies and the aging process. As Mickey Mantle said, “if I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself.” Joy was the star of the foursome with a 49 on the front nine. She birdied the par-3, #7. Sadly, it wasn’t one of closest to the pin holes. She lost steam on the last couple of holes but tied for Low Net. Hooray. Kim birdied the par-3, #3 with a long putt. She had a couple of blow-up holes but righted herself with several pars. Joanne parred quite a few holes and played better than her handicap. We all laughed a lot which makes it so much more fun to play this beautiful course on a fabulous Fall Day.
Group 3: Linda Lockyer, Rekha Patel, Jane Hornaday, Lisa LaMagna. Jane speaks. Perfect day on the HMB Ocean course! Linda dominated the front nine with consistent tee-to-green play. Rekha's back nine was stellar—could've been even lower without a few lip-outs. Jane delivered a clutch par save on 18 and Lisa's short game shined throughout. And that ugly Hole 10? Duff city for everyone—good laughs all around. Great having Rekha as our guest!
Group 4: Lana Yagle, Marissa Felezardo, JoAnn Deasy, Valerie Makarovsky. No one scribed for this foursome…slackers!!!
Group 5: Deb Upshaw, Virginia Lawson, Lily Boris, Diana Millado. By our favorite blurb writer, Lily. In the Bay Area, we’d call a foggy morning ‘dreary.’ But out by the Oceanside the fog was magnificent. It is not wrong to call first day of November in California a typical “fall” day. The sun hung behind the fog for hours, crisp and cold in the morning, followed by a bright sunshine (after we all had played at least 16 holes). We had a day much like a quote from Bobby Jones: "Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots – but you have to play the ball where it lies." Deb played PAR 3’s and 4’s very well. Managed the course gullies and valleys. Her drives were consistent, and her putts were generally online. She also managed to stay out of the sand on this day. Virginia came ready to play. All smiles and laughter. Her driver was spot on!!! Didn’t miss a single drive. She had several PARs and several NET PARs. Diana started the morning with PARs on holes 1-2 & 3, followed by a 10 and she managed the course so well, that she ended her day with a 91 and low net. Lily played alongside Diana. Lily played a very different game, managing to make distance shots BUT NOT putts. And at the end of the round had a decent score … so go figure. Truly golf is a cool game.

Maleah Larroca
She deserved it
From El Presidente:
We didn’t get many blurbs for our fun time at our Stay N’ Play. At Half Moon Bay we’ll assign scribers. We did have a good showing for golf and for Joan’s party. She puts on a great spread, and our signature drink (Fight Like a Girl) was apropos of our play.
Group 1: Debbie Gill, Joan Hoover, Betty Osborn & Meleah Larroca: Poor Meleah!! She lost two balls on one hole and lost another ball that went no farther than 25 yards. We should have been able to find them all. We all scored poorly, especially on the back nine. You have to hand it to Joan for playing with one good eye and a painful, non-seeing other eye. What a trooper. The best we can say about Betty and Debbie is that they played the par 3s with aplomb.
Group 2: Lily Boris, Diana Millado, Maureen Theberge, Chris Czerkies. Lily’s memorable play. All in all, a round full of laughs, long drives, lost balls, and legends in the making.
G: Grand performance by Maureen with low net. And low gross.
She was on fire!
O: Oh, followed closely by Chris with great putting and consistent drives.
L: Lily played 18 bunker shots. A bit messy!
F: Finally closing out 17, Diana chipped in for PAR!
Group 3: Kathy Burry, Mary Jo Leary, Linda Lockyer, Yoko Uesaka. Mary Jo joyfully remembers: Our golf outing was chef’s kiss perfection! The course was gorgeous—rolling hills, thick green grass, and views that made us forget (momentarily) how many steps we were getting in while searching for those “mysteriously” disappearing balls. Total Where’s Waldo: Golf Edition. The greens? Indy 500 fast—blink and your putt’s gone. Highlights: Linda nailed closest to the pin, Kathy and Yoko were driving rockets down the fairway, and Mary Jo claimed the fewest-putts crown. We climbed hills that belonged in a mountain stage of the Tour de France and launched drives to greens four stories below.

Kathy Burry
Sad!
Group 1: Meleah Larocca, Debbie Gill, Althea Peng, Madeleine Markman (12). Scribed by Debbie. Debbie won with a 47 and 17 putts…oh BTW she played only the odd holes. Meleah started out badly but picked up speed until the 10th hole; however, she parred the 18th hole. She’ll be back. This just wasn’t Meleah’s weekend for golf, albeit she did get closest to pin and she did a fine job of scoring in Elise’s absence. And then there are Althea and her daughter, Madeleine (12 years old). Althea was proud and also chagrined at the final score as they tied with 91 with Madeleine winning low gross. In deference to Althea, she blew up with an 11 on the 18th hole. We thought the course was fun and a good course for the Par Tee Girls.
Group 2: Betty Osborn, Kathy Burry, Chris Czerkies, Lily Achatz. Highlights by each:
Lily: I was fighting like a Girl not to max holes.
Chris: Joan’s party set the tone for my relaxed play in Monterey.
Kathy: it was a beautiful day and I enjoyed playing with you lovely ladies. Sorry not to be more competitive—between my horrid short game and Lily’s errant balls (that went 200 yards), Betty looked like a semi pro and Chris was amazing with her steady, stellar playing (I will try to emulate – when I return from Italy)
Betty: Chris played lights out, Lily hits a long ball but maybe a little wide, Kathy had a slight problem in the sand and Betty played better than her recent games but you wouldn’t know it from her score. All in all a fun day!
