DGA a NJ Golf Club
Congratulations to the 2025 Partners Tournament Champions:
Dan Price & John Rutigliano
Gentlemen of the DGA,
The Championship match was played on a perfect weather day at Quail Brook, with the front-9 extremely close. After playing from behind for most of it, Dan & John took 2 points on the par-4 ninth hole, giving them a 1 point lead at the turn. They won 5 more points the next four holes, taking a commanding lead, winning by +6 after the 16th hole. Jim (with Mike) was giving 17 shots to both of their opponents, which certainly made all those holes very challenging to compete with.
As it turned out, Dan had the best DGA net round of all players that day, shooting a neat 67. As Mike graciously indicated in his classy congratulatory email after the match, Dan the Iceman was on fire on the front-9, and JVR contributed handily often, also contributing 3 net-eagles... and it seemed they both never had a bad score on the same hold. This is Dan & John's 4th Partners Championship, having won most recently back in 2015, and previously in 2006 and 2002... and they now have the second most DGA Partner titles, behind the Bobby's who garnered a whopping 9 P-crowns.
Congratulations to the other semi-finalists teams - Greg Cavallo & Ed Korleski and Rick Newport & George Canfield.
Thanks to all DGA Partner Teams who participated in this year's P-Tournament.
Dutifully,
Frankie T., DGA
