There are two (2) divisions within the event: Boys (14-18) and Girls (14-18). The Medinah Country Shrine Jr Invitational is an invitation only event and is based upon the previous year achievements. This IS reported to JGS along with any official scores (if 1 or more rounds have been completed). NC- No card after having begun a competition- a deliberate decision not to sign or turn in a card or player walks off the course.
This is NOT reported to JGS.ĭQ- Disqualification as a result of a USGA Rules infraction. The following is an explanation of what is sent to the Junior Golf Scoreboard:ĭNS- No show before competition began. If a qualified event has a less than 18 hole round as part of the competition (e.g - second round suspended after 9 holes) that score will be recorded for each player for the purposes of determining the "finish" but will not be used in a player's differential calculation. Players who fail to complete an event (WD, NC, NS, DQ) will have all completed rounds entered in their record to be used in their ranking, unless not part of their best 75%, or they are reported as a "Justified Withdrawal" - JWD. Players who miss an 18 hole cut, will have that score entered in their record and used in their ranking unless not part of their best 75% Players competing in events scheduled for 36 holes or more, if the event is weather shortened, will have all completed rounds entered in their record to be used in their ranking unless not part of their best 75%. The end of the war brought slow but stable economic recovery, new hope, and gradual growth in the club’s membership.ġ)Ěll official scores for players who fail to finish an event will be included in their competitive record for their ranking calculation.Ģ) Those rounds will be treated as any other round. Course #2 was closed, and for a time members helped maintain the other two courses. World War II brought more economic misfortune and the club’s membership dropped far below capacity. As many members withdrew, the club waived initiation fees, lowered dues, instituted fundraising events, launched golf tournaments, and soon thereafter eliminated the requirement that only Shriners could join Medinah. The onset of the Great Depression created great financial hardship. In the late 1920’s, Medinah had approximately 1,500 members. Shriners were familiar with Brand’s work on the Chicago Medinah Temple and other historic sites. The rotunda and murals were the work of another club member, Gustav A. The Schmidt Brothers (Otto, August, and Ernest) were Shriners and charter members of Medinah. Schmid’s plans were carefully executed with Schmidt Brothers Construction Company as general contractor. His design gave Medinah’s clubhouse the taste, style, and elegance still evident today. Schmid had a flair for blending the classic lines of Byzantine, Oriental, Louis XIV, and Italian architecture characteristic of many Masonic structures. Schmid was hired to plan and design the clubhouse. While the golf courses were being constructed, Richard G. A major redesign took place in the early 1930’s. That original Bendelow layout only lasted for three years. Course #3, originally designed for Medinah’s ladies, was completed in 1928. Both of these courses have hosted a variety of amateur, professional, and Chicago District Golf Association events. Construction on Course #2 was completed a year later. In September of 1925, the Shriners enjoyed their first round of golf at Medinah on Course #1. Tom Bendelow, a world-renowned golf course architect from Scotland, was retained to design the golf courses. They selected several parcels of land in an area then known as Meacham, in northern DuPage County, which was once owned by the Meacham, Lawrence and Rosenwinkel families. Their goal was to build the best country club in North America with a 54-hole golf complex and a variety of other recreational activities. In the early 1920’s a group of Shriners from Chicago’s Medinah Temple had a dream to create a country retreat.
