SANTA ANA HEIGHTS - It wasn’t scheduled as a brother-brother golf

tournament, but you couldn’t tell from the Santa Ana Country Club results

of the annual men’s member/guest Derby Classic.

Garnering low net was club member Grant Wiese and his brother, Dean

Wiese of Olympia Country Club in Olympia, Wash., while SACC’s Dave Bock

captured low gross with his brother, Tom Bock of SeaCliff Country Club in

Huntington Beach.

Last week in the Santa Ana Country Club ladies’ member/guest, called

the Swan Classic, club member Debbie Britton and partner Cris DeBoer of

Dove Canyon Country Club won low net, while Nicole Ronald of SACC and

partner Judy Eggert of Mission Viejo Country Club won low gross.

The 52nd annual Santa Ana Country Club Invitational, believed to be

the oldest golf tournament in Orange County, will be held Aug. 7-12, SACC

Director of Golf and Head Professional Mike Reehl said.

Newport Beach’s Gary Lage, playing with baseball celebrity Jim Merritt

(former Cincinnati Reds pitcher), was part of the runner-up low-net team

at Coto de Caza’s North Course in the annual Goodwill Industries of

Orange County Golf Classic last month.

Former Angel Bobby Grich, a 16-year major league veteran who rounds up

several of his diamond buddies for the charity, is the tournament’s

celebrity chairman.
