of even the rain could put a damper on the Hank
Greenberg Golf and Tennis Invitational on Monday,
June 17. The sixth annual, daylong event, spon-
sored by the Michigan Jewish Sports Hall of Fame
at Tam O'Shanter Country Club in West Bloom-
field, drew 168 golfers and 44 tennis players.
According to tournament chairmen Steven Si-
mons and Eric Krause, the celebrity skins game
was a major success, and-professionals Larry Laoret-
ti and Keith Clearwater conducted a clinic after the
competition.
The golf tournament was won by a team of David
Simon, his 12-year-old son Danny, Ed Fenton, Lar-
ry Brady and sportscaster Eli Zaret.
Tennis tournament winners were Sy Nagel, Stuart Perlman,
Bill Stone and Seymour Grundy.
No one came close to whining the $1 million prize in the hole-
in-one contest, according to Mr. Simons, but Barry Bremen was
closest to the pin.
Other highlights of the day includ-
ed the Greenberg Memorial Achieve-
ment Award presentation to Cleveland
Indians great and San Francisco Gi-
ants executive Al Rosen and the Au-
dette Cadillac Up Close and Personal.
At the latter event, the dinner audience
heard stories about the 1945, 1968 and
1984 World Series from former Detroit
Tigers Hal Newhouser, Bill Freehan
and Dan Petry. 0
