RICHARD FITZGERALD
Joined the DGA back in 1988, sponsored by one of our DGA Founding Fathers, Eddie Kerr. Rich has won a World Series Championship, a Partners Championship (with F.Thiry), and the prestigious Vardon Award. He has played a total of 842 DGA rounds through the end of last year 2022. Most frequently address as "Fitz", he is also uniquely recognized for his 35 consecutive years of membership in the DGA, ..... and somehow being able to tolerate and endure the multitude of unique and strident personalities within the DGA all these past 35 years with dignity, humility and class 😉.

Welcome...
Celebrating our 62nd year (1962 - 2023)....
The DGA is a golf association established in 1962. It consists of 29 active members, and 9 life time members playing the public courses in Somerset County, NJ.
Ed Kerr has provided some information about the start of the DGA. Ed and Jim Jackson played rounds together starting in 1959. Starting on March 25, 1962, George Stamas joined Ed and Jim and Ed started keeping official records. Jay Shovlin played his first round on March 31. Tom McColgan joined Ed, Jim and George on April 28. In that 1st year, 38 rounds were played. Tom McColgan had 14 of them.
In 1963, more elaborate records were kept including birdies and four round tournament scores. In 1964, Ed Rackowski, Min Minutello and Dan Fairlie joined the DGA and it was the year of the first 8 player Pinehurst trip.
Based on this information, 2011 was confirmed as the 50th Anniversary of the club!
