Here you go--5/7 Highlights from the O'Bannon Creek Golf Club TGIF League.
As noted in the 4/30 highlight post, I will do my best to report the facts as accurately as possible, based upon what I see on the scorecards and hear in the restaurant/clubhouse after the rounds. If you want me to know about a highlight, write it on the card, send me an email, tell me about it at dinner. I will poke some fun, make up some stuff, pick on some people, but never without considering whether or not I know the people well enough to not offend. If I do offend, I'm sorry, and will try my best not to. TGIF is about fun--I'll try to keep all posts fun as well.
Gennaro/Taylor: For some unknown reason, Susan Taylor was not available to play so Doug recruited the only other woman he knows, Brian Ellis, to play for Susan. Not sure if Brian put on his Fred Funk skirt but somehow he was able to outscore Brookan and win the match, 6 1/2 to 3 1/2. Brookan parred #s 2, 3, 6, and 7--nice job Brookan. Dan and Doug deuled hole-by-hole with Doug prevailing 6/4. Seems Doug's par on #8 was a turning point. Doug shot a net 35--good shooting Doug.
Basone/Bowie: Wow, not sure what Ben said to Lowell on the 1st tee box but must have turned on the fire in Lowell's belly. Lowell won the match 8 1/2 to 1 1/2. Ouch! Maybe that is why I saw Ben limping off the course after the match. Darlene tried to help, winning the match with Sandy 6/1/2 to 3 1/2.
Garrison/Trame: Sandy won the match against Billie 6/4--close match. Match went back and forth all the way to the end. Sandy birdied # 3, and parred # 6. Nice going Sandy! Jeff and Gary went at it hard, not sure if there was some arguing going on, but Gary finally came out on top 7/3.
Miller/Paul: Ruth took on both Joel and Linda all by herself and ended up beating Joel 6 1/2- 3 1/2 and losing to Linda 6 1/2- 3 1/2. So, as Joel often says, TGIF is what you do before dinner! Ruth had a nice par on #7. Par is always nice on #7!
Hlovchiec/Sparks-Anderson: Hub and Jack, and Paula and Robin, all played to a draw, 10 points for each team. There were rumors of some mysterious shoulder injury Robin suffered, allowing her to only putt. Apparently she putted well!
Kuhn/Smith: Janet and Shirley went back and forth for a while in their match until Shirley prevailed 7/3. Bill and Jay did the same, went back and forth, then Jay reeled off three holes in a row, leading to a 6 1/2 to 3 1/2 win.
Closest to the Pin:
#5, Ben Basone
#7, Ruth Paul
Free sleeve of balls to Ben and Ruth!
