Julie Massa of Holt, 57, is the GAM’s Senior Women’s Player of the Year. It is an unprecedented 6th consecutive year that the Forest Akers Golf Course member has been named for the award.
“I feel so honored to be Player of the Year in a year where we were also so happy just to be able to play,” she said. “I think it happens because I just enjoy the game and the competition. I enjoy trying to make myself better, learn more each year and in the end just have fun at it.”
Massa wasn’t able to play her usual national schedule because several USGA tournaments were cancelled, but she still earned 368 points playing in GAM tournaments. Powering her point total was her win in the GAM Senior Women’s Championship, and a second in the GAM Senior Tournament of Champions.
