We dodged what was supposed to be rain in the morning and it ended up just being really hot! In our third year of running the 2-Person Scramble tournament, we had 52 players on 26 teams playing in a single NET and GROSS event.
First place players will take home $50 and 100 BMGA Cup Points. Second place is worth $40 each and 75 BMGA Cup Points. Third place is $25 per player and 50 BMGA Cup Points. Fourth place is $15 per player and 40 BMGA Cup Points.
In the Gross Tournament there was some surprise. In first place was Brad Jordan + Howard Hoffman at -8 including an eagle on 15! Second place was Erik Swanson + Kelly Gallagher at -7. In a tie, broken using USGA Card, third place went to Nick Hendrikson + Zach Kamerer at -4. And fourth place to Ben Wolfe + Craig Wethington.
In the Net Tournament, some new names and a lot of similar names. Ben Wolfe + Craig Wethington -4 gross resulted in a tournament setting -11 Net for first place. Brad Jordan + Howard Hoffman takes 2nd place at -8 Net (and Gross). Erik Swanson + Kelly Gallagher and Matthew Payne + Steve Couture were tied at -7. Using cards again, Swanson/Gallaher take 3rd place.
