    Hi ev1,

    in the thread Club Owners Tournament we set up a wee tournament for Country Club owners. This thread is to organize it.

    Sequence of play:

    Being 10 players, we'll start with 5 matches. Results and scorecards must be presented here. Winners will advance of course.

    By comparison and countback the three "best" follow-ups will be determined and continue to the second round. Thus eight players will enter the second round, making up for a classic bracket.

    First round is 9 holes + extra holes, 2nd round to final are 18 holes + extra holes.

    We play rated matchplay in the following sequence:

    Round 1: Bethpage front nine, 9 holes, 5 matches

    Round 2: Best of Famous 18 holes, 4 matches.

    Semi-final: Congressional 18 holes, 2 matches.

    Final: Oakmont 18 holes.

    MPCs may be played on prior agreement. Online or offline streaming is welcome.

    Rules:

    Rule 1 calls for fun and fairness - this is a casual tournament.

    Time for each round is one week. First round should be terminated by Tuesday, Jan 29, 23:59 h PST (equivalent to Wednesday, 7:59 h GMT).

    Each couple and each player is responsible for their game. Do your best to come together and bring it to a good end.

    Post your scorecards (first round only) and results here, winner being responsible for the result, follow-up for the pics.

    Results may be entered in the spreadsheet (voluntarily).

    Prizes:

    We have a honorable cup (courtesy of SHRUDE)

    + 1 sleeve of balls (brhthecarpenter)

    + 2 sleeves (mantis0014)

    + 3 sleeves (SHRUDE)

    + (2x Nikes or 3x Callies) (Fraenkel)

    + 2000 credits worth of Pro Shop items (100plus)
       (will be broken into some nice prizes)

    Thank you very much Gentlemen!

    Further donations are welcome.

    Played the open match with Paul.

    I lost for 2 under. Playin' from a notebook and with a wifi connection isn't the right choose but it's the one I can. Paul is a great player and a gentleman and for sure a great "saver" from rough or sand, he deserved to pass the line.

    Have a good luck in the tour Paul.
    I'll keep the eyes on the event but keep me all informed for the prizes.

    Cheers mate,
    Davide.

     

     

    Post Scriptum

    • We should be play this every 2 or 3 months, it will be great.
    • Paul, Shrude, I remove You guys from my friends list for my obvious problem with connection using the laptop, I got your messages saved so we can keep the contact.

    Match 5, Fraenkel vs. alosso, alosso wins 2 and 1.

    Enjoyed the company and the match - quite unusual between all the A/S.

    Before the next round I need a new index finger :)

    Edit: Thank you for your courtesy Davide!

    While it's rather calm here:

     

    Is there anybody active, playing, co-ordinating, preparing result posts?
