TEAM 16 Jeff Matvienko/ Carlos Triana(13th Season)

Jeff and Carlos Got it done again in 2017. Their third title, they are a  force to be reckoned with yearly.  When they are not out shopping for  white pants together or at home watching Dancing with the Stars, Jeff  and Carlos can usually be found beating nearly every opponent that comes  their way.  They are the only team to ever finish a season undefeated  in doubles at 13-0 in 2009 and extended their unbeaten streak to 23  straight before finally losing.  It's hard to believe that their  partnership came together at the last minute.  Like Bert and Ernie, they  seem like they've been friends for life.  Majors: Jeff(7) Carlos(8) 

One of the two longest  tenured teams, Tom and Mike are also two of the most popular members and  are certainly the fastest team out there.  Both are streaky who have  each rattled off back-to-back tournament wins in their careers.  Tom  will sometimes go sans woods and win tournaments and other times, when  he's behind a slow group, he will hit driver on every shot including  from in the bunkers and on the greens.  Mike is the self proclaimed  Champion of the Practice Range.  Both of them have seen and heard all  the things that make the league great and will be happy to share  them.    
Majors: Tom (1) Mike (2) 

Both members joined us as independent members in 2017 from Chris  Fasouletos, with an open team spot available they want it. Both golfers  played over 4 events with us last season and saw what it was to compete  in Doubles when they played together. Both have yet to win their first  event title but it is right there for them to get it.
Majors-: NONE 

 Mike was an independent in 2016, and John  was a full team, they decided to team up for 2017. Both players had  some success in 2016, and were both named to the Ryder Cup team that  came up 1 stroke short of claiming the victory. 
Majors: Mike 1, John 1 

 Taka might describe this team  as  Happy-Go-Rucky.  The fact is that they are very competitve and easy  going but that has never contributed to any team or individual success.   They'll play in any weather,even after a long drive up from Myrtle  Beach, and make nearly every event.  Taka's brush with fame came when he  made the final group for day two of the 2002 Club Championship only to  shoot 77 on the front nine. He is often mistaken for a 27 year old  by strangers.  Andy, when he's not posing for print ads as the second  man on the evolutionary chart, can be heard spouting off heinously corny  one liners. Majors: None 

 A pair of golfers from the CJGC, Brian is  related to Powell in some way. I do know that they are NOT from  PLAINFIELD. John won 2 events in his rookie year and Brain finished in a  tie for event wins but lost on tiebreakers. They finished their  inaugural season in 3rd place not bad for a couple of rookies.
Majors - John 3, Brian 1 

Nunzio and new member Bil Murray, came to  join Nunzio the 2019 season,  Bikk a fellow golfer from Nunzios town of Livingston, so now we  shouldn't have a problem with Nunzio heading to the wrong course for his  tee time.  Good luck guys.
Majors- Nunzio (3), Bill-0 

Scott and Hank decided to pair up after  the banquet since their old partners are changing their status, Scott's  partner from last year is moving, and Hank's is going to be playing less  events. Both these guys know what it takes to get some wins.
Majors: Scott 2, Hank(0) 

Chris attempted to play as a guest with  us in 2014(via web), he jumped at the chance to join the club he was the  first to respond to the email I sent out to golfers that showed  interest in becoming members last season. He is brought his friend Tom  to join him for their rookie year and have been with us since 2014.    Majors: None 

After his winning the singles title in  2016 Brady got Charlie Padilla (the Colombian) to return and they will  be partners as the original plan when Brady entered the club in 2015.  They both work together and will be a tough out. So be on alert. Charlie  has 1 tourney win but no majors
Majors:  Brady-1, Charlie-none 

Joe found us on thru the website and  brought in his father-in-law to become a team for the 2018 season, both  golfers have been assigned a new handicap thru the ghin system. They  played approximately 25 rounds of golf this past season at different  courses so they will not feel a shock like the members that were used to  playing the same course week after week. Good luck this season 
Majors - None 

Ed's and Gary's partners from 2016 are  both unable to play in 2017 (Baron, Gropler) so they will team up in  2017. Both of which are looking forward to being a threat to the title  holders in both Singles and Doubles, good luck gentlemen.
Majors:  Ed (2), Gary-0 

Dave and Jim were members with us back in 2015 but took a few years off due to schedules conflicting but email'd me asking for a full spot to come back in 2019, welcome back guys.
Majors- NONE

 Frank is back to full member status after a seaon off as a sub (due to work schedule). Kyle came to us via the site looking for a friendly yet competitive golf club, both looking forward to  2019 and both have their handicaps in the same range so a good fit.
MAJORS - Kyle 0, Frank 1

Jon joined us via our website. He brought in his friend, Jae Kim and both played as independents last season returned as full members in 2020. They both were inquiring about  a golf club that has some Friendly competition, they should fit in well with the Weekenders.   

MAJORS  - NONE

Dennis one of our GO to MAJORS players, He welcomed rookie, James Ha via recommendation  from ex partner Frank Garcia, Dennis led the WEEKENDERS to its win in the RYDER cup back in 2018

MAJORS DENNIS 8/ JAMES NONE

 Usually a full team this past year they decided to become independent members with fellow member Jim Gillick so they are under no pressure to make a lot the events and when they do mix it up the 3 of them can make one team if needed for competition.
Majors: NONE

 One of the elder statesman in the club, Jim usually partners with Bill Buntzen but Bill doesn't play anymore,  so when Jim plays it is as an independent and usually with Paul B. or Dave S.  most of the time the 3 of them are together.
Majors- None 

Tom joins us via Dave Severson He is an INDEPENDENT (SUB), he plays alot and when there is a full team missing Tom and Dave Severson compete as a Team for Doubles/Singles competition
Majors- NONE

 Coty joined us from our website. Coty, a local golfer looking to take his next step playing golf, He has played a lot of golf (locally @ Meadows) and we get to expand his golf course expectations.

Majors- NONE

Mike came to us via the site, had a partner but only able to play a few events due to work schedule but enjoys playing as an independent so he is able to compete when  is needed

MAJORS  - NONE

Let's get one thing straight. There is no Weekenders Golf Club without Carmen DeLizio and let me be one of many who should give him his due. Here from the start in 1972, he kept the league together in good times and bad and acted as the league treasurer until this season, of what could be the best independent golf league in the country. When it comes to golf, Carmen remains one of the best and toughest competitors in the league even at his advanced age.  On top of that, he remains one of the least controversial figures refraining from trash talk.  With Carmen readying for retirement and finishing up his workload as a town electrical inspector a full season load would be too much so for this year he prefers to be listed as an Independents but I am sure you will still see him at 50% of our events.  Majors: (4) 

Dave  0wns the title of our UNLUCKIEST golfer. Sure he has won multiple events during his years, but he holds the record of most  TIEBREAKERS LOST, if he is low man after the round , and  it goes to our tiebreaker , he is a record 1-12 in tiebreakers or Dave may be the most winningest golfer in our Club.  He  will show at about every week so if you need a sub he is your man.    MAJORS;  NONE

  Tom found us on our website, and wanted to join us at an event in 2017 as a guest but his schedule didn't allow it. He will be joining us in 2018 as an independent member. He has a GHIN number so he will have an effective handicap when we start. Tom wanted to be a full member but only thinks he will make about 5-7 events this year and didn't want to be a burden to a partner.  Majors NONE
