Spotlight: Marie Beron, Greenock Women’s Club Champion:

Marie has one of the more interesting stories in the Berkshires.

 

After a 24-year absence, she rejoined Greenock this season and enjoyed immediate success. In the women’s club championship in early September, she shot rounds of 85-84 and won by six shots. That victory concluded a hot summer stretch that propelled her to 10th in the Women’s Player of the Year standings. Her season includes a pair of wins with Carole Nichols, in the Women’s Allied season-opening Allied 4-Ball at Taconic and in the Allied Scramble at Beron’s home club. She concluded her Allied season with a 15th place showing in the Individual at Berkshire Hills on Sept. 22nd.

 

The most peculiar part of her golf story revolves around her return to Greenock after a 24-year hiatus. In 1970, Beron, who grew up in a house next to Greenock’s 5th hole, won the Greenock Junior Club Championship playing against boys her age. Three years later, she left Greenock and gave up golf.

 

“I got married and had two kids,” Beron said. “That pretty much took up all of my time.”

 

Twenty-three years later—her children all grown up—she took up the game again, joining the GEAA, which was about 200 yards from her home on Crane Avenue.

 

She called upon her father, now 88-years old, to teach her the same fundamentals that he instilled in her as a junior golfer.

 

“It wasn’t that easy,” she said with a smile. “I couldn’t hit a shot.”

 

But her game resurfaced quickly. In 1997, she made her only hole-in-one in a tournament at Oak Ridge in Feeding Hills. That same year, she won the first of four consecutive GEAA Women’s Club Championships. She won her 5th club championship in 2003, the same year she won her 3rd and final Pittsfield City Championship.

 

Despite that success at GEAA and in Pittsfield, her Greenock roots were tugging at her side. After 24 years, she returned to Greenock in 2007.

 

“It’s come full circle,” said Beron, who plays regularly in the Women’s Thursday evening league. “I missed the course, and a lot of my family’s still down there.”
