Fore!

Todd Weatherly has done it again! For the 3rd straight year, he is our Club Champion! Today, he carded a 67, matching his round 2 score, and finished with a 204 overall (+12 gross score). This is Todd's 4th overall championship, as he also claimed the crown in 2007 in addition to '15, '16, and '17. Congratulations, Todd! Well done!

I'm also pleased to report that Dave Talbot earned the Low Net Club Champion this year. Overall, he went net 18 under par over 3 rounds to claim his 1st ever low net championship. Congratulations, Dave!

As far as the flights go, Rich Elwell ran away and hid from other competitors to claim the 1st place trophy in the 1st flight. Matt Quinn eeked by Randy Lawson by one stroke to claim 2nd place in the 1st flight.

In the 2nd flight, Sean Carmichael comfortably won 1st place in his flight (and overall, 2nd best low net score -13)). Meanwhile, Richard Lewis and Jerry Fallon both finished tied at -1 but Lewis won the tie-breaker on the back 9 to earn 2nd place.

In the 3rd flight, Rich Perry's outstanding -7 net score (4th best overall) scored his 1st place trophy. Carey Winborne shot an excellent -6 to earn 2nd place in the 3rd flight.

Congratulations to all the trophy winners! Your awards will be given on November 18th at Cattlemen's in Roseville.

Specifically today, credit must go to Rick Walker, who shot a 71 with 5 birdies; and Tom Kuzmich who went a -7 net score for the best net score of the day, and Warren Rickard, who nailed some sick birdies on #7 and #14 to earn some skins.

We can all exhale now that the Club Championship has completed (and by all, I especially mean myself). The next tournament is going to be great! It's called Shambles. You'll be part of a four-man team. Each player will hit a drive and then you will select the best drive. Once you select the best drive, every player will play their own ball the rest of the way until the hole in concluded. The score that's used will be the lowest score of the four players. A handicap will also be included as part of your team's score (your team's combined handicap divided by 4). This one is a new one since I've been tournament chairman and I think it's a cool idea. I hope you all can make it on September 30th for this one. Please bring guests as this is a great format for guests and our membership drive starts in October!

I'll see you all in 2 weeks on September 30th, tee times at 7:30. Enjoy the start of Fall!

Matt
