The West Bloomfield teen shot 1-under-par 71-72 —143 at Tam-O-Shanter and Knollwood country clubs in the JCC Maccabi Games locally, becoming the first golfer in Maccabi Games history to win a gold medal with a below-par score. A few weeks later, Felsenfeld, then 16, became the youngest winner of the Tam-O-Shanter club champion- ship. Felsenfeld is now in his third year at the prestigious David Leadbetter Golf Academy in Bradenton, Fla., but he's headed back to the Great Lakes state. The 17-year-old has signed a national letter of intent to play golf at the University of Michigan. He received a partial scholarship. "It's time to come home Felsenfeld said. And it's time for another Felsenfeld to attend U-M. Matt's parents, Bob Felsenfeld and Brenda Weingarten, are graduates, and so is his brother Josh Felsenfeld. A near 4.0 grade point aver- age student at Pendleton School in Bradenton, Felsenfeld plans to apply for admission to U-M's Ross School of Business after his freshman year. "I'd like to go into marketing or business administration, something I can tie into my golf career:' he said. Yes, becoming a pro on the PGA Tour is Felsenfeld's dream. He's well on his way to making his dream come true. A nationally ranked junior player, Felsenfeld is ranked the No. 2 junior in Michigan by National Junior Golf Scorecard and Golfweek magazine. He's collected 13 top-10 finishes in junior tournaments in 2008 and 2009, including a fifth-place showing in the 2009 Michigan Junior State Amateur Championship. Felsenfeld attended Detroit Country Day School in Beverly Hills as a high school freshman. His 21st-place fin- ish in the Division 3 state boys golf tournament helped Country Day place fourth in the team standings. Even though he had some misgiv- ings at first, Felsenfeld is glad he made the difficult decision to leave home and head south to the Ledbetter Academy, which provides boarding and an academic program in addition to rigorous golf instruction. Matt Felsenfeld: Ann Arbor bound "It was a tough decision, but if I was going to compete against the best players in the world, I needed to play golf year-round;' the 6-foot-2, 160- pounder said. "I'll admit I was home- sick my first year, and I've given up a lot of my social life, but the experience has been worth it." Heartfelt 300 Game Twenty-one months after undergoing quadruple-bypass heart surgery, Howard Waxer can boast about a differ- Howard Waxer ent number. He bowled his second career 300 game Nov. 20 while competing in the Westside Merchants League at Airway Lanes in Waterford. Waxer shot 300-224-237 — 761. He rolled his first perfect game Dec. 16, 2002, in the Brotherhood-Eddie Jacobson B'nai B'rith League at Country Lanes in Farmington Hills. That series was 214-300-223 —737. Even though his 300 games are separated by nearly seven years, Waxer thought lightning could strike twice. "I came close in 2003 when I bowled a 299 while subbing in the Downtown-Fox B'nai B'rith League (at Drakeshire Lanes in Farmington Hills), so I was confident I could get another 300:' he said. The 61-year-old Farmington Hills resident is a longtime B'nai B'rith bowler. He's a board member of the International B'nai B'rith Bowling Association and a past president of the Metropolitan Detroit B'nai B'rith Bowling Association. Waxer bowled for the U.S. in the World Maccabiah Games in 2001 and 2005 in Israel and in the Pan American Maccabiah Games in 2003 in Chile. Send news to sports@thejewishnews.com .
