The Results Are In







The first thing I did this morning after arriving at the golf course was to check the Leaderboard. The Puttermeisters were, indeed, in first place... but by only one single stroke. The second day of this tournament is often more difficult, so we knew we'd have to do well to hang on to the lead for the final win.

We did do well and, thankfully, my putter was hot again! Most importantly, we had a good time and ended up with the same score as yesterday, a 76... giving us a two day total of 152. This turned out to be 7 strokes better than the closest team, who shot an 82 today.

Pictured here on #10, which was our first hole of the day, from left to right: Lisa, me, Donna, Karen. Barb... are you reading this? We missed you!

I didn't stay around too long after the tournament was over. After the hot round, I had to get home and take a cold shower for an evening dinner with some friends. I know we won the first gross team prize, and also some of the side game money... skins, KP, gross honey pot, etc.

Our next event together is a "Putting For Sight" tournament at Desert Canyon, sponsored by the Greater Wenatchee Sunrise Lions Club. It will be held September 9th. Karen will not be able to play with the team because she is a member of the sponsoring club and will be running the tournament. We will find a substitute. We are the defending team winners, and I am the defending overall individual winner.

My next golf event is this coming Thursday for our monthly regional Team event, which will be held at Apple Tree in Yakima.
