Whether competitors arrived with partners, friends, or fellow members, the atmosphere stayed lighthearted and welcoming throughout the day.


For many, the tournament was about more than just golf. Kris Jolly summed up Valentine’s perfectly, saying her favorite tradition is simply “spending time with the one I love.” Others leaned into the humor of playing together, like Lynda Demato, who joked that her favorite part of golfing with her partner is “when it’s over,” drawing laughter from her group.


Beyond the competition, players highlighted what makes San Vicente special. Arturo Muñoz shared, “Meeting new people and friends. I always enjoy my day out here and always have fun,” capturing the welcoming vibe that keeps golfers coming back.


At the end of the round, Janet and Chico Flores along with Tim Doulgeropous and Amy Sailors emerged as tournament winners, closing out a day defined by camaraderie, smiles, and memorable moments on the course.


From heartfelt quotes and playful banter to standout team performances, the Valentine’s Jack and Jill Tournament proved that at San Vicente Golf Resort, it’s not just about the scorecard — it’s about community, connection, and savoring every round together.
