Memorial Day Pro-Am

I followed up my one-club playing sessions with a team victory in the LGC Memorial Day Pro-Am! Team Kurt Flionis, Chris Murphy, Rob Justice, and Eric Carlson shot a 128, for a two-shot victory over Rob Lynch's team. We finished on the 13th hole with a gross birdie (Kurt) and a net eagle (Eric) to close out a tremendous back nine of 9 under par 63 (gross and net).

The tournament format was 90% handicap, with each team having to take 1 gross score and 1 net score per hole. The field included 13 teams of 4. Each team was comprised of an A, B, C, and D player.

What a fun day! Eric Carlson shot 85 as a 19 handicap and Rob Justice had 86 as a 16 handicap! My team was money.

I played much better and shot 74 with 5 birdies and 1 eagle (drove the 16th green to 10 feet), a strong contribution to the gross category. I had 9 one-putts. Lately, I have not been making birdies, so this was a sign of improvement. I feel better about my game going into the Sherrill Cup on Wednesday.

Great day at LGC! (on a random note, my teammate Eric Carlson says he can get me out on Lake of Isles anytime!)

To positive energy,
Kurt
