  I just played lilmike24 right now. But couldnt get the next 18 holes because he had to go after.... but our scores were...

  edchavez: 33-33=66 (-4)... Birdied #3, #4, #11, #13, #15. But i got so careless, and missed a 3 foot par putt on #18!

  lilmike24: 36-36= (+2)... Birdied #3, #6, #12, #17. Bogeyed #5, #15. Double-Bogeyed #1, #11.

  Mike had a very bad day! I have played with him the most times here on WGT, and this was the worst i've seen him played. Couldnt make any putts, getting into tree trouble on #1, causing a double bogey. But on hole #7... he went into the deep trees, on his drive, he got the ball out into the fairway, hit an approach shot, within 5 feet. And made a spectacular par! Talk about making a par the hard way!

  We still need to get the 18 holes at Kiawah... Hopefully we can come back to win. He must bring his "A"-game

  Result of 2nd half of our match on Kiawah:

  coolswing       67 (-5)

  Lilrob88           70 (-2)

  The match was much closer then the scores indicated here, with only 1 or 2 shots between us most of the way.  After front 9 I was in the lead by 2 shots then came the 11th hole where I just had a disaster taking 3 shots to get out of the bunker and ended up with a double bogie whereas Rob sank a nice putt for an eagle to complete a 4 shots swing !! lol !  I was lucky to made up the 2 shots with birdies at the next 2 holes with Rob missing his birdie putts by a whisker.  Then came the par 5 16th where Rob took a real unlucky bounce to be in the deep bunker at green side and finished with a bogie so I took a 1 shot lead.  Worst was to come when the meter took a real nasty skip on Rob and caused him to go in to the water and that was the end of a real good game.

  It's a pity that the match had to end that way, and i just took a huge sigh of relief as the game really could have gone either way with both of us trying our hardest to give the match away ! lol ! Thanks to Rob for the game and being such a good sport and a real gentlemen through out the whole match. I felt bad for him as he was really unlucky at the end there and deserved better.  Thanks Ed again for the tourney and I hope we could speed things up to finish the tourney before the Ryder Cup start.

  Scores for the Final match:

  Coolcwing           62 (-10)

  Lobwedgex60     64 (-8)

  

  

  This was a great game from the beginning and it was neck and neck through out the front 9 holes and Lw was unlucky to be behind with a few lipout putts.  The back 9 was pretty much the same with Lw scoring an excellent eagle on the 11th to close the gap but again he didn't have much luck with the putter with 2-3 putts missing by very little.  I was able to pulled away after the 13th Hole but Lw didn't give up and played strongly with some excellent approach shots to birdies 4 out of the last 5 holes to finished only 2 shots behind.  Just as well that I'd established a good lead other wise those last few holes would be real exciting and we all know any thing can happen there ! 

  Thanks to Lw for a very good final match and a great way to finish this tournament. Also thanks very much to Ed Chavez for putting on an excellent tourney and for inviting me to play.  I look forward to your next tourney Ed.
