The Summer Rounds are in the books.
It was hot and muggy as the field of six teed off on the second round that would determine who would shelf the Cup for the rest of the summer. Three players (MaT, BOB and Wayne) would vie for the Cup while three others (Robby, Sammy and Brad) would play an exhibition round.
Going into the round, MaT was up a stroke over BOB and Wayne with Travis back five strokes. With Travis unable to make the second round, there would only be three possibilities for shelving the Cup for the rest of the summer and into the fall.
With the stroke lead going into the second round, MaT would stave off any charge BOB was able to muster. While BOB made a gallant charge, MaT was able to hold him off and add a couple of strokes to the differential by the end of the round. Wayne was five strokes back at the turn and out of the hunt by the start of the Travis Trail.
Winning the combined Cup rounds by 3 strokes; this is MaT’s unprecedented third Surgeon’s Cup, making him the most successful Cup winner in recorded league history. Sammy, with two wins to his credit, is the only other league member who has a chance to tie this remarkable statistic this season.
League scoring will include an additional bonus point posting for the final finishing positions as follows:
1st MaT +6
2nd BOB +4
3rd Wayne +2
Please note, the Fall Cup rounds are scheduled for October 17 and October 24. MARK YOUR CALENDARS and be there to claim your opportunity to shelve the Cup for the long winter “off season.â€
The league APAR remains at 7.
