What a lovely post to read!
Thank you Lou and Wes, and Mati and Phil, for fitting in these extra games. I'm so glad you could all spare the time to finish this event on the right note, and that you had such fun!
This spirit is what this event is all about: Tough-It-Out is so darn hard that you have to have a sense of humor going into it, and as all are going through the tribulations of tackling a course like Chambers with the same gear, and (in the AltShot especially) from such a long, way away, lol, it really becomes a shared experience... and IMO makes for some great matchplay situations, since a real range of scores are possible on each hole.
Anyway, I think this turned out to be big success, and I hope we can do it again early next year with Pebble Beach (if not sooner with an existing course).
Although the final result is not so important, congratulations to Team ROW on a fine win.
The Overall Match score was:
Team USA 7.5 | Team ROW 12.5
And, here, for your amusement, are the Player Stats from the event:
johehejo wins the plaudits as the only player on either team with a 100% record with 3 wins, while Daskino also remained undefeated with 3.5 points from his 4 matches.
