Southern Texas PGA Announces 2022 Cup Captains
The Texas Joe Black Cup, Levy Cup, and Texas Junior Cup Matches feature some of the best PGA Members and Junior Golfers across the Southern and Northern Texas Sections and the Southern Texas PGA is excited to announce the 2022 Captains for these Matches!
Doug DeSive, PGA Head Professional at The Dominion Country Club and Past President, will serve as this year’s Captain of the 42nd Texas Joe Black Cup Matches at Maridoe Golf Club in Carrollton on November 15-16, 2022. This will be DeSive’s 4th year participating in the Matches and he looks to keep the Cup in Southern Texas after last year's win.
“It is an honor to lead the STPGA for this year's Texas Joe Black Cup Matches,” said Doug. “However, the more important item is that we keep the Cup in Southern Texas! Winning away matches are always challenging, but I will ensure our team is ready to go come November!”
For the Levy Cup Matches, Ronnie Fletcher, PGA Assistant Professional at Lakeside Country Club will be the Captain at the sixth annual playing of the Matches. This year the Southern Texas Section aims to reclaim the Cup at Cimarron Hills Golf & Country Club after a loss to Northern Texas on their home turf.
“For me, these Matches and being named the Captain for the Southern Texas team is something I would never have dreamed of,” said Ronnie. “But I am very appreciative of the opportunity. I hope the event will have a lasting effect on all those that play because I know it will for me.”
Lastly, heading to our 11th Texas Junior Cup Matches, Chris Westerdahl, PGA Director of Instruction at Houston National Golf Club and 2021 Youth Player Development Award Winner hopes to lead our junior golfers to another victory and retain the Cup for the fifth year in a row at Sand Hill Farm Golf Course in Waller on September 17-18, 2022.
“It is an honor and a privilege to be selected as the Captain for the 2022 STPGA Texas Junior Cup,” said Chris. “I am looking forward to a fun and exciting weekend with the players and their families.”
