The Carr Mara Golf Competition is a unique and meaningful tournament that blends the spirit of competition with the celebration of two legendary figures in the golf world: Joe Carr and Wellington Mara.
Both men had made lasting contributions to their communities and to the world of sports. JB Carr had expressed interest in having a competitive amateur event named after him, and Wellington Mara was a revered member of Winged Foot Golf Club.
