Final day of the season for the Tuesday Men and we still don't have our winners. Does look like it's a two team race in the Team competition though not impossible for the third and fourth place teams to sneak in. Bill Carrico and Keith Parsons take on George Templin and Don Nolan - would have been fun to have them go out together this afternoon; they won't be separated by much as they tend to play about the same time. Dave and Dan along with John and Dean wish them the best, I am sure...
And in the Individual competition, any one of the top eight could easily end up on top tonight. John Foddrill was out again this weekend hoping for a repeat of last week when he also played on the weekend and then shot a 38 on Tuesday night. I imagine Trenton would love a 32 and a long drive on #6. John Drake is playing awfully well. Kevin Byron is explosive and could go low. Charlie Lyon knows what first place feels like and has Phil and John and Skip to push him along. Curt Johnson still looking for that elusive 38; would be a good night to get it. Don Nolan and Keith Parsons have to be considered prime contenders but they have to go low to win it all; they have been know to do just that.
Then there is all that other stuff going on to finish the season. Like the flighted tournaments and the long drive competition. In the latter, will Mike Kidwell's drive on the first night of the competition be the best and make him a wire to wire winner? I wouldn't think so; the ground is even harder now, certainly there is a long shot left in somebody's big stick, one maybe even twenty or thirty yards longer than Mike's. Of course, maybe Mike has that shot and will put it out there tonight. (Any new contenders? You can still enter the fray by plunking down the entry fee before you go out today. I know one person who wishes he had done that last week, a guy by the name of Trenton. And, as Dave Wininger says, all it takes is one shot.)
Flighted tournaments. Always found these to be the real highlight of the year. I like the leaders in each of the flights but they do have to go out and play today. Whose got the game to stay on top? Which contender is going to go low today? One thing for sure, you had better go low cause conditions, fast and hard fairways, soft and receptive greens, are going to produce a host of low scores. Of course, Eric is out there now picking out spots for the pins. As far as he's concerned, Tuesday is like Sunday in the bigs, tough pin placements, make the players earn their glory.
Okay, Tuesday Men. Your last chance at glory. Make the most of it...
