Fat Shafts Clinch First

(Update: A couple days after posting the update below, an error was found on the score sheet. The standings are correct now but this story contains some inaccuracies based on the original scores.)

With three weeks left to play in the regular season, the Fat Shafts (consisting of Mark Kennedy, Andy Koetstra, Lyle Williams, Stephen Westlake and Dave Reid) have clinched the league championship. With a 22 point lead they can’t be caught by the now second place KGB.

The Fat Shafts earned six points in their match against the Dubbers this evening.

Peter Hughes fires at hole #1.

The Rolling Stones also took six points and still mathematically have a chance to challenge for a spot in the “A” flight of the upcoming playoffs. They currently sit nine points behind the fourth place Whizbangers. Also taking six points were the KGB.

Further down in the standings, the Bogies, Latecomers and Hackers are all tied for ninth place with 27 points but any of them could slip into the “B” flight as they are only nine points back of the eighth place CCCP.

Also taking points this evening were the Southpaws, Hackers and Fivesome who earned four point each. Two points went to the Whizbangers, Wedgers and CCCP.

Tim Donaldson had the low round of the night with a 29. The Closest to the Pin winners were Dave Walker on hole #5 and Eric Mofina on hole #14. The 50/50 winner was Rick Turtle.

KGB Still Perfect

I don't want to jinx us but after the wet start to the season we've been fortunate the last three weeks to have ideal golfing conditions. Overall the scores were slightly better tonight but teams continue to struggle despite the amazing conditions of the course to start the year. 

The KGB remain the only team that hasn't given up a single point after week three as they swept their match against the Wedgers to earn another six points.

Glenn Lonergan tees off on hole #4.

The Whizbangers, Rolling Stones and Southpaws also took six points. The Fat Shafts and CCCP each earned four points while the Bogies and Latecomers settled for two points. 

The low round of the night was posted by Kyle Wilkinson with a 31. The closest to the pin winners were Jim Turner on hole #3 and Kyle Wilkinson on hole #12. The 50/50 winner was Eric Mofina.

Have a safe and enjoyable Victoria Day long weekend.
