She has, arguably, the most recognized voice in the entire city of Waukegan.
A teacher in the school district, Kelly Sine?s ?other? job is as the public address announcer for Waukegan High School?s home basketball games.
In that capacity, she literally lets her voice do the talking for her ? a distinctive pitch echoing throughout the Dog Pound as she keeps hoops fans informed of what?s happening on the court.
This past week, however, Sine let her golf skills do the talking for her as she competed in the 36-hole Women?s Club Championship tournament that drew a field of 50 at Bonnie Brook Golf Course in Waukegan.
As the scoreboard suggests, Sine?s golf skills spoke volumes about her ability on the links as she won the championship for the third time in a 25-year span, prevailing by three strokes with a score of 86-81?167.
Sine, who back in the day was a prep star on the links at Waukegan East, also won the Club Champinship in 1994 and 2011.
For the second year in a row, Sine, who lives in Beach Park, and Wadsworth?s Beth Weiler owned the top two spots. Last year, Weiler fired a two-day total of 156 to beat Sine by nine strokes and claim her fourth club championship. This year, Sine trailed Weiler by three strokes after Thursday?s round, but her 81 on Friday was the best 18-hole score of the tournament and good enough to flip the deficit into a two-stroke victory.
On Friday, Sine took a triple bogey on the 129-yard par- third, which presents a tee shot over water, but played the other 17 holes just 6-over-par.
Low net over the field was the 139 posted by Waukegan?s Sally Coffelt.
?I was very steady today. I had one horrible hole on the third hole. I took a triple-bogey. I put in the water, then over the green. It was a mess. After that, I was really steady the rest of the day. I just prayed something good would happen, and it did. I?m very grateful,? she said.
?I just got done playing in another tournament on Monday and Tuesday in McHenry. I was just kind of our there and not hitting anything really well. It was just nice to come back and show that I played golf before.?
The McHenry Invitational was a 36-hole tourney that was won by a college player from Palatine.
On the bag for Sine all week was her fiance (wedding is next summer) Danny McDonald.
?He caddied for me on Monday and Tuesday, so I?m glad he finally got to see my play better today,? Sine said.
Sine and Weiler have been competitors for many years and probably will be for many more.
?We have a lot of respect for each other?s games. Everybody in our flight has proven sometime this summer that they can play some good golf. I was just lucky to have it going today,? Sine said.
The champ also praised the people at Bonnie Brook, which is a course run by the Waukegan Park District.
?I want to thank (club pro) Tony Tinetti and his assistant John LaFoone for all of their help,? Sine said. ?They?ve been very supportive in letting us run this tournament.?
Among the other winners was June Ulch, who was the Flight C champion. Winning was nice, but it wasn?t her highlight of the season.
Earlier this year, she aces the 114-yard sixth hold at Bonnie Brook.
